Summary:
Bigfork, Minnesota has one listed high school — Bigfork Secondary — a school serving grades 7–12 with 130 students at 100 Huskie Blvd in Bigfork, part of the Grand Rapids Public School District. Because it is the only high school in the area summary, it is best understood as a single-school profile measured against its district and state averages. The school reports a student-teacher ratio of 12.3 and a free/reduced lunch rate of 54.62%, and it holds 3 stars, ranking 219 of 473 schools (54th percentile) in 2025–2026.
The clearest standout is student completion. Bigfork Secondary reports a 100.0% graduation rate and a 0.0% dropout rate for 2024–2025, well above the district (90.7% graduation, 3.4% dropout) and the state (84.9% graduation, 4.2% dropout) — a strong result given that more than half of students are eligible for free/reduced lunch. Some grade-level results also shine: 8th grade reading is 53.3% proficient (district 46.3%, state 50%), 10th grade reading is 50% (district 44.5%, state 42.5%), and Science End of Course is 38.5% (district 36.3%, state 35%).
Math is the most urgent concern. All-grade math proficiency is 14.9%, roughly 30 points below both the district's 45% and the state's 44.9%, and every reported grade level — 7th (11.8%), 8th (18.8%), and 11th (14.3%) — trails district and state averages. Reading overall is 43.5% (district 55.2%, state 48.6%), with 7th grade at just 29.4%, so reading performance varies a lot by grade. All-grade scores also slipped from 2024–2025: math 27.87% to 14.9%, reading 47.76% to 43.5%, and science 29.27% to 24.1%, while the school's percentile fell from 65 to 54 over two years. With only 130 students, a few students can shift percentages by several points, so year-to-year swings deserve caution.
