Summary:
Bluesky Charter School is the sole high school serving grades 6-12 in the Bluesky Charter School district in Bloomington, Minnesota. With a total enrollment of 613 students, the school has struggled to perform at the level of other high schools in the state, ranking between 242 and 374 out of 476-480 high schools over the past three school years and earning a 1 out of 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Bluesky Charter School's academic performance is a concern, with proficiency rates on the MCA-III assessments significantly lower than the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, the school's 11th-grade math proficiency rate was just 16.67% in the 2024-2025 school year, compared to the state average of 34.96%. Additionally, the school's four-year graduation rate of 84.2% in the 2023-2024 school year was slightly below the state average, while its dropout rate of 4.4% was higher than the state average.
Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.5 to 1, which could be an advantage, Bluesky Charter School's academic struggles persist. The school serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, with 42.9% of its students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year, higher than the state average. Overall, the data suggests that Bluesky Charter School is an underperforming school that may need to implement significant improvements to better serve its students and community.
