Summary:
ZIP code 54486 is home to a single elementary school: Tigerton Elementary, a PK–5 school with 121 students in the Tigerton School District. Because it is the only elementary school in the area, there is no in-area comparison to make — the useful comparison is how it stacks up against the rest of Wisconsin.
Tigerton Elementary is on a clear upward trajectory. Its state rank climbed from 845th of 1,061 schools (20th percentile, 1 star) in 2023–2024, to 676th of 1,044 (35th percentile, 2 stars) in 2024–2025, to 437th of 1,039 (58th percentile, 3 stars) in 2025–2026 — a 38-point percentile jump that puts it above the state median. That is notable, since the district as a whole ranks 365th of 432 districts at the 16th percentile with 1 star, though school and district rankings are not perfectly comparable. Test scores moved in the same direction: every tested subject and grade improved from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, with the biggest gains in 4th grade science (+19.61 points), 5th grade English language arts (+18.33), 3rd grade math (+13.67) and 4th grade social studies (+12.42).
In 2025–2026 the school beat state proficiency rates in 4th grade social studies (88.89% vs. 65.51%), 3rd grade math (69.23% vs. 54.75%), 4th grade science (66.67% vs. 53.46%) and 3rd grade ELA (61.54% vs. 52.08%). The clearest weak spot is 5th grade math, at 33.33% against a state rate of 51.81%; 4th grade ELA and math also trail the state slightly. Chronic absenteeism is a strength at 12.6%, below both the district (13.4%) and the state (17.3%). About 47.11% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, spending is $19,270 per student, and the student-teacher ratio is 12.1:1. With only 121 students, individual grade percentages rest on small groups of test-takers and can swing with one or two students, so read them with that in mind.
