Summary:
ZIP code 54313 in Green Bay is home to seven elementary schools serving roughly 2,486 students across five districts — Howard-Suamico, Pulaski Community, Ashwaubenon, Green Bay Area Public, and New Leaf Prep Academy Inc. Grade spans differ: Meadowbrook, Forest Glen, and Suamico serve PK–4; Pioneer, King, and Lannoye serve PK/K–5; and New Leaf Prep Academy is PK–8, so its data includes middle grades the others don't have. This is a strong area overall: five of seven schools rank between the 69th and 89th percentile statewide, and area chronic absenteeism (10.9%) is well under the state's 17.3%.
Lannoye is the standout, ranking at the 89th percentile with the highest average proficiency across the six commonly reported subjects (73.6%, about 18 points above the state). Forest Glen is the most consistent — never below the 78th percentile in three years, averaging 71.4% — while Suamico pairs the best attendance (6.3%) with the lowest poverty rate (12.8% free/reduced lunch) and still averages 70.3%. King is the surprise: it belongs to the lowest-ranked district in this group but beats that district in 6 of 8 tested areas, including 3rd-grade ELA at 57.5% versus the district's 37.2%, though its 5th grade slips sharply (25.6% ELA, 20.5% math). New Leaf is the volatile one, weak in early grades (3rd-grade math 16%) but strong in upper grades (7th-grade ELA 86.7%).
Two patterns stand out for families. First, poverty doesn't predict results here: New Leaf has the lowest poverty rate but the weakest early-grade scores, while King has the highest (45.5%) yet outperforms its district. Attendance tracks outcomes more consistently, and spending doesn't — Suamico spends the most ($16,273) while Lannoye spends nearly $2,800 less per student and scores higher. Social studies is a shared strength, with five schools clustered between 82.4% and 83.7% against a state rate of 65.5%. Note that New Leaf's reported 66.6% dropout rate is almost certainly a reporting artifact for a PK–8 school with no high school grades.
