Summary

Frost Lake Elementary School is a public elementary school in Saint Paul, Minnesota, serving 540 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Saint Paul Public Schools district, which is ranked 345 out of 446 districts in the state.

Frost Lake Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Minnesota elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating poor academic performance compared to other schools in the state. The school significantly underperforms the district and state averages in math, reading, and science proficiency. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 13.65% of Frost Lake students were proficient or better in math, compared to 26.55% for the district and 45.21% for the state.

The nearby The Heights Community School and Hazel Park Preparatory Academy also perform poorly, with similar low rankings and academic proficiency rates. However, the Cornerstone Montessori Elementary School, a public charter school located within 1 mile of Frost Lake, outperforms the school and district in both math and reading proficiency, suggesting that factors beyond just the district or geographic location may play a significant role in student academic achievement.
