Summary:
The MACCRAY School District in Minnesota has only one elementary school, MACCRAY Elementary, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. The school has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Minnesota elementary schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past two school years.
MACCRAY Elementary's academic performance is mixed, with some grade levels performing better than the state average in Math, while overall proficiency rates in Math, Reading, and Science are generally lower than the state averages. The school's 4th-grade Math proficiency rate was higher than the state average in 2024-2025, and its 3rd-grade Math proficiency rate was higher than the state average in 2023-2024. However, the school's 5th-grade Science proficiency rate was lower than the state average in 2023-2024.
MACCRAY Elementary has a relatively high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, at 48.6% in the 2023-2024 school year, suggesting that the school serves a population with significant economic challenges. The school's small class sizes, with a student-to-teacher ratio of 8.5, may be a strength, but this factor alone does not guarantee academic success. The school's consistent low performance and mixed academic results indicate that it could benefit from targeted interventions and additional support to improve student learning and overall school performance.
