Summary:
ZIP code 54930 is served by a single public school, Coloma Elementary, an elementary school in the Westfield School District that enrolls 100 students in grades PK–5. Because only one school serves this ZIP code, Coloma Elementary is the entire picture for local families, and its small size matters: with roughly 100 students, a shift of one or two children can move a grade-level proficiency rate by several percentage points, so single-year swings should be read with caution.
The school's clearest strength is math. Its math averages beat both the district and the state in each of the last two years — 55.97% versus 46.61% district and 53.14% state in 2025-26, and 58.75% versus 46.72% district and 53.85% state in 2024-25. Third grade math stands out at 86.67% proficient in 2025-26, far above the district (53.33%) and state (54.75%). Fifth grade ELA was also solid at 57.14%, above district and state, and 2024-25 science reached 62.5%, above both benchmarks. Chronic absenteeism, at 17.1%, is essentially in line with the district (17.0%) and state (17.3%), so it is neither a strength nor a weakness here.
The main concerns are the school's rank trend and its 2025-26 fourth grade. The school slipped from 351 of 1061 (67th percentile, 3 stars) in 2023-24 to 525 of 1044 (50th percentile, 2 stars) in 2024-25, then to 750 of 1039 (28th percentile, 1 star) in 2025-26; the district is also low-ranked at 327 of 432 (24th percentile, 1 star). Fourth graders in 2025-26 scored 18.75% in ELA, 31.25% in math, 25% in science, and 50% in social studies — all below district and state. ELA overall (38.63%) also trailed the district (41.41%) and state (53.19%). With 47% of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch, $13,373 in per-student spending, and an 11.1 student-teacher ratio, families should track cohorts over multiple years rather than judge the school on one grade's results.
