Summary:
The Duluth Public Schools Academy district in Minnesota operates two elementary schools: North Star Academy and Raleigh Primary/Elementary Academy. Both schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and face academic challenges, with consistently low proficiency rates in Math and Reading compared to the state average.
North Star Academy is ranked 577 out of 872 Minnesota elementary schools and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school struggles with low proficiency rates, particularly in the upper grades, and has a high free/reduced lunch rate of 54.24%. In contrast, Raleigh Primary/Elementary Academy is ranked 623 out of 872 and has a 1-star rating, with mixed performance in Math and Reading proficiency and a slightly lower free/reduced lunch rate of 50%.
Both schools have relatively small student-teacher ratios, suggesting that class size is not a significant factor in their academic performance. The data indicates that the schools face socioeconomic challenges, which may contribute to their academic struggles. Addressing these underlying factors and implementing targeted interventions could be crucial in improving student outcomes at the Duluth Public Schools Academy elementary schools.
