Summary:

In ZIP code 54521 (Eagle River, Wisconsin), there is one public elementary school: Northland Pines Elementary-Eagle River, serving grades PK–6 with 484 students in the Northland Pines School District.

This school’s strongest features are attendance, math, and upper-grade results. Chronic absenteeism is 10.4% in 2024–25, better than the district’s 13.7% and the state’s 17.3%. In math, the grades 3–6 average was 58.11% in 2024–25 (above district and state) and 56.41% in 2025–26 (above state). Sixth grade ELA (59.46%) and math (56.76%) both exceeded district and state in 2025–26. Fourth grade science was 55.56%, above the state’s 53.46%. The student-teacher ratio is 12:1. Weaker spots include third grade ELA (40.98%) and math (52.46%), both below district and state in 2025–26, and social studies, which was below the district in both reported years and below state in 2025–26.

Key context: the school has been rated 2 stars for three years, with a 2025–26 rank of 542 out of 1,039 (48th percentile), while the district is at the 56th percentile with 3 stars. Enrollment is 484, free/reduced-price lunch is 45.25%, and per-student spending is $17,474 in 2024–25. Math averages have consistently outperformed ELA averages, and upper grades show relative strength while third grade is a marked weak spot in 2025–26. The school serves a substantial share of economically disadvantaged students and has relatively small classes, so its mixed results—strong in math and attendance, weaker in third grade and social studies—should be read alongside that context. No test-score values were suppressed or given as bounds, so all reported figures are exact percentages.
