Summary:

ZIP code 54540 is served by a single elementary school: Northland Pines Elementary-Land O' Lakes, a small PK–4 school with 51 students at 6485 Town Hall Rd in Land O' Lakes, Wisconsin. It belongs to the Northland Pines School District. Because there is only one elementary school here, families in this area have one public elementary option, and everything below describes that school.

The school has earned 4 stars in each of the last three rank years. In 2025–2026 it ranked 126 of 1,039 elementary schools (88th percentile), after ranking 256 of 1,044 (75th percentile) in 2024–2025 and 211 of 1,061 (80th percentile) in 2023–2024. That places it in roughly the top 12% statewide, well above its district, which ranks 190 of 432 at the 56th percentile with 3 stars. Test scores back this up. In 2025–2026, 3rd grade math proficiency was 100% and 4th grade math was 85.71%, both far above district and state. Third grade ELA was 85.71%, 4th grade ELA 57.14% (slightly below the district's 58.67% but above the state's 53.87%), 4th grade social studies 71.43%, and 4th grade science 71.43%. In 2024–2025, math, science and social studies also beat district and state averages.

Chronic absenteeism stands out: 0.0% in 2024–2025 versus 13.7% in the district and 17.3% statewide. About 45.1% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch, spending was $23,610 per student, and the student-teacher ratio was 10.5:1. One caution: with only 51 students, each grade is a tiny group, so a single student can shift a score by about 14 points and year-to-year numbers can swing. The strong results are still meaningful, but treat single-year changes with care.
