Summary:
Spring Valley, Minnesota has just one elementary school in this data set, Kingsland Elementary School, which serves grades PK–6 to 306 students as part of the Kingsland Public School District. Because it is the only elementary school in the city, there are no in-city peers to compare it against; the most useful benchmarks are its own district and the state of Minnesota.
Kingsland Elementary ranks 308th of 869 Minnesota elementary schools — the 65th percentile — and holds a 3-star rating. Its all-grade Math proficiency of 54.5% is above the district (48.7%) and the state (44.9%), and Reading proficiency of 53.3% also tops the district (52.3%) and state (48.6%). Science is the exception: 24.4% is above the district (18.3%) but 1.1 points below the state (25.5%). Grade-level results show particular strength in 6th grade Math (57.5% vs. the state's 39.5%) and 5th grade Reading (63.4% vs. 54.5%). The softer spots are 4th grade Reading (45.0% vs. 48.8%) and 5th grade Science (24.4% vs. 25.9%).
Year over year, Math slipped from 60.39% to 54.5% while Reading stayed essentially flat (52.94% to 53.3%) and Science climbed sharply from 15.79% to 24.4%. The school's percentile rank has moved from 62 to 68 and now 65, so it remains a stable, upper-middle performer rather than a sharply rising or falling one. With a free/reduced lunch rate of 40.85% and a student/teacher ratio of 14.2, Kingsland Elementary continues to post above-state results in Math and Reading, with Science the clearest area to watch.
