Summary:
The city of New London, Minnesota is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, 2 high schools (one regular and one alternative), and no alternative schools. The New London-Spicer School District provides a quality education, with all schools maintaining 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger.
The standout school in the district is Prairie Woods Elementary, which consistently ranks in the top 25% of Minnesota elementary schools. The school's math and reading proficiency rates are significantly higher than the district and state averages, and it maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.1. Another high-performing school is New London-Spicer Middle School, which ranks in the top 15% of Minnesota middle schools and also has a 4-star rating.
While the elementary and middle schools in the district excel, the high schools, particularly New London-Spicer Senior, perform closer to the state average, indicating a potential need for improvement at the secondary level. The district's alternative school, New London Alternative School, serves a smaller student population with a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students, suggesting the district is using this school to address the unique needs of a specific population.
