Summary

Lake Park Audubon Elementary is a public elementary school serving 336 students in grades PK-6 in Audubon, Minnesota. The school is part of the Lake Park Audubon School District, which is ranked 271 out of 446 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Lake Park Audubon Elementary has consistently ranked in the middle of Minnesota elementary schools, typically between 375-451 out of 800-900 schools over the past 10 years. The school's performance on the MCA-III assessments is mixed, with math proficiency rates generally higher than the district but lower than the state, while reading proficiency rates are similar to the state average. The school performs better in the lower grades compared to the upper grades in both subjects. Compared to nearby schools, Lake Park Audubon generally outperforms Ulen-Hitterdal Elementary and Ogema Elementary, but lags behind the higher-performing Hawley Elementary and Rossman/Roosevelt Elementary schools in the Detroit Lakes district.

One notable bright spot is the school's strong performance for its low-income student population, ranking in the top 15-20% of Minnesota elementary schools for this subgroup. However, the school's relatively weaker performance in the upper elementary grades, particularly in math, suggests there may be an opportunity to improve instruction and support for students as they progress through the grade levels. Overall, Lake Park Audubon Elementary appears to be a solid, middle-of-the-road elementary school that is doing a good job of supporting its low-income students but may have room for improvement, particularly in comparison to the stronger schools in the surrounding area.
