Summary:
Elementary schools located in the Aspen Academy area consist of a single school: Aspen Academy, a K–8 school in Savage, Minnesota serving 641 students as part of the Aspen Academy district. Because it is the only school in this area, it is the standout by default, and its results are best understood by comparing them with Minnesota state averages rather than with other nearby schools.
