Summary:
The city of Saint Michael, Minnesota is home to a diverse set of 9 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 4 high schools, and no alternative schools. The schools in this area are generally high-performing, with several standout institutions that rank among the top in the state.
The flagship high school, St. Michael-Albertville Senior High, is the largest in the district with 2,240 students and has consistently ranked among the top 12 high schools in Minnesota. It boasts exceptional academic performance, with 60.27% of 11th graders proficient or better in Math and 72.64% of 10th graders proficient or better in Reading. The district's middle school, St. Michael-Albertville Middle East, has also been a top performer, ranking among the top 37 middle schools in the state. At the elementary level, Big Woods Elementary stands out as the highest-ranked school in the district, ranking 37th out of 845 Minnesota elementary schools.
However, the data also reveals some areas of concern, such as the significant performance gap between the district's flagship high school and the alternative high school, Knights Academy, which has much lower test scores, graduation rates, and higher dropout rates. Additionally, the schools in the St. Michael-Albertville Schools district vary in their student-teacher ratios and free/reduced lunch rates, which could indicate potential equity issues that warrant further investigation.
