Summary:
Families in the Hmong College Prep Academy area have a single public high school option: Hmong College Prep Academy High School, located at 1515 Brewster St in Saint Paul, Minnesota. The school serves grades 9–12 and enrolled 791 students. It is the only high school in the Hmong College Prep Academy district, which is rated 398 of 458 Minnesota districts — 13th percentile, 1 star — so there are no other local high schools in this data set to compare it against.
The school's strongest results are in completion. Its graduation rate was 92.2% in 2024–2025, well above Minnesota's 84.9%, and its dropout rate was 1.5%, far below the state's 4.2%. Science is its best-tested academic subject relative to the state: 28% proficiency in 2024–2025, above the state's 26.15%, and 24.4% in 2025–2026, just 1.1 points below the state's 25.5%. In both years, the school outperformed the district average in math, reading, and science — in 2025–2026, science was 24.4% at the school versus 11.2% in the district. Its state rank improved from 366 of 480 schools (24th percentile, 1 star) in 2023–2024 to 324 of 473 (32nd percentile, 2 stars) in 2025–2026.
Math and reading remain the biggest concerns. Math proficiency was 21.31% in 2024–2025 and 20.8% in 2025–2026, roughly 24 points below state averages. Reading fell from 38.24% to 28.8%, a 9.44-point drop, while the state declined only 0.99 points; the assessment label also changed from MCA-III to MCA-IV between those years, which may affect the comparison. Other context: 79.14% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch in 2024–2025, and the student-teacher ratio was 16.7:1. Overall, the profile is mixed but improving.
