History of MacArthur
First known as Germantown State Graded School, MacArthur was built in 1922 as a two-room schoolhouse. Eventually we were renamed Germantown Elementary School District #5, and in 1963 our school took its final name, MacArthur Elementary, after General Douglas MacArthur.
As enrollment grew, the original building had additions in 1956, 1962, & 1984 and the original two-room schoolhouse was demolished in 1991. In 2018, a large expansion included a new library, cafetorium, and 4th- & 5th-grade wing. In its current form, our school can accommodate approximately 600 students and is set on a nearly eight-acre site near the corner of Pilgrim Road and Fond Du Lac Avenue.
