About Christian Education Leadership Academu

Christian Education Leadership Academy serves pre-kindergarten through 8th grade in Pewaukee, Wisconsin, within Waukesha County. With 84 students, 18 full-time teachers, and a 4.8:1 student-teacher ratio, the school is notably well-staffed for a school of its size, allowing for close attention to each student. No standardized test data is available.

Pewaukee is a large suburban community west of Milwaukee where median household income is approximately $94,700 and half of adults hold bachelor's degrees — a family-oriented community known for its lakes, parks, and strong community cohesion in the Greater Milwaukee area. The modest enrollment creates a tight-knit community where students and teachers know each other well. Families in the area reflect a community invested in their children's futures, and the school draws from a neighborhood where education is a clear priority.

The rural setting provides a quiet, unhurried environment where students can focus on learning and grow as part of a close community.

What Parents Should Know

With an enrollment of 84 students, Christian Education Leadership Academu is a smaller school where families often find a close-knit community atmosphere. Smaller settings can mean more individual attention from teachers and staff, though they may offer fewer extracurricular options than larger schools.

With a student-teacher ratio of 4.8:1, Christian Education Leadership Academu offers a notably low ratio compared to the national average. This typically means smaller class sizes and more opportunities for one-on-one interaction between students and teachers.

As a private school, Christian Education Leadership Academu operates independently from the local public school district. Families considering this school should inquire about tuition costs, financial aid availability, and the admissions process. Private schools are not required to follow the same curriculum standards as public schools, which can be either an advantage or a consideration depending on your priorities.
