Summary:

Rosemount, Minnesota has five high schools serving grades 7 through 12 across two districts — Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan and Intermediate School District 917 — with 2,690 students enrolled combined. Rosemount Senior High dominates the landscape with 2,364 students, or 87.9% of all listed enrollment, while the other four are small alternative, online, or specialized programs: 917 Tesa (133 students, grades 7–12), 917 DCALS Main (112, grades 8–12), 196Online High School (71, grade 12), and 917 DCALS Main Extended Day EDOP (10, grades 9–12).

Outcomes differ sharply. Rosemount Senior High posts a 94.6% graduation rate and a 1.6% dropout rate, both better than its district (88.7% and 3.2%) and the state (84.9% and 4.2%). It ranks in the 95th percentile of Minnesota high schools with 5 stars and beats the state in every reported 2025–26 subject — most dramatically in science, where 57.7% of students are proficient versus 25.5% statewide. By contrast, 196Online High School, in the same district, graduates 80.0% with an 11.4% dropout rate, and its student/teacher ratio of 33.1 is the highest in the list. 917 DCALS Main has the lowest current graduation rate at 46.9%, a 50% free/reduced lunch rate, and prior rankings of 20th percentile or lower.

The Intermediate School District 917 schools serve higher-need populations — free/reduced lunch rates of 44.36%, 50%, and 70% — and that district's 45.9% graduation rate trails the state's 84.9%. Families should note that data completeness varies widely: test scores are available only for Rosemount Senior High and partially for 917 DCALS Main, where most 2025–26 figures are suppressed by the state, meaning unknown rather than zero. 917 Tesa, 196Online, and Extended Day EDOP have no test-score data listed, and rankings exist only for Rosemount Senior High and 917 DCALS Main, which limits direct comparison across all five schools.
