Athlos Leadership Academy

This area is served by a single school: Athlos Leadership Academy in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. The area summary lists one elementary school and no middle, high, or alternative schools, so there are no local peer schools to compare against. The school is classified as Elementary but actually serves students in grades PK–8, with 807 students enrolled. It makes up the entire Athlos Leadership Academy district, which is a one-school district, so district results and school results are identical.

Academically, the school is rated 1 star and ranks 733rd of 869 Minnesota schools for 2025–2026, placing it in the bottom 16% (percentile 16). Its district rank is 394th of 458, percentile 14, also 1 star. This is not a one-year result: the school has been 1 star in each of the last three years, with percentiles of 20 in 2023–2024, 24 in 2024–2025, and 16 in 2025–2026, so the most recent year is a decline from the prior year's relative position. Every reported subject and grade level falls below the Minnesota average, and all three all-grade gaps widened in 2025–2026.

Reading is the relative bright spot, though still below state: 33.2% proficient versus 48.6% statewide. The strongest results are 6th grade reading at 40.8% and 7th grade reading at 34.0%, which has the smallest gap to the state at 9.5 points. Math shows the largest all-grade gap, 19.6% versus 44.9% statewide — 25.3 points below — and it fell 8.16 points from 27.76% the prior year. Science is the weakest subject at 7.8% all-grade versus 25.5% statewide, including just 2% in 8th grade science and 10.1% in 8th grade math. Contextually, 76.33% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch and the student-teacher ratio is 18.3; these figures describe the school's setting but do not by themselves explain the proficiency results.
