Summary:
AFSA High School is a small Minnesota district with 395 students across two schools: AFSA High School, serving grades 7–12 with 246 students, and AFSA Elementary, serving grades PK–6 with 149 students. Because there is no separate middle school, seventh and eighth graders are counted within the high school's all-grade results. Overall the AFSA High School district ranks 345 of 458 in the state, placing it in the 25th percentile with 1 star, and both schools fall below Minnesota averages on proficiency tests.
The two schools differ sharply in profile. AFSA Elementary has a student-teacher ratio of 8.7, less than half the high school's 19.7, but a much higher share of students from low-income families (82.55% vs 55.69%). AFSA High School has the better current standing: it ranks 318 of 473 (33rd percentile, 2 stars), up from the 20th percentile a year earlier — its best rank in three years. AFSA Elementary ranks 685 of 869 (21st percentile, 1 star) but improved from the 10th percentile, with all-grade math rising from 17.05% to 24.1% and reading from 26.14% to 36.3%.
Math is the clearest shared weakness: the high school is 17.4% proficient and the elementary school 24.1%, against a state average of 44.9%, with 11th-grade math at the high school and 3rd- and 5th-grade math at the elementary school especially low. Science cuts the other way — it is the high school's relative bright spot at 20% versus a district 16.9%, while the elementary school reports 0% for both all grades and 5th grade, against a state 5th-grade average of 25.9%. The high school also graduates 78.0% of students versus 84.9% statewide, with a 7.3% dropout rate versus 4.2%. Reported 0% values are exact, not suppressed, but may reflect small groups.
