Summary:
Nasha Shkola Charter School is the only elementary school in this area: a small PK–8 charter school in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota, serving 138 students, with 78.99% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch and a 14.7 student-to-teacher ratio. Because the school operates as its own charter district, its district-level numbers are identical to its school-level numbers, so the most useful comparison is against Minnesota state averages. With only 138 students spread across PK–8, individual grade levels are tiny, meaning one or two students can move a percentage by many points.
Math is the school's clearest strength. In 2025–2026, all-grade math proficiency was 48.2%, above the state's 44.9%, with standout results in 3rd grade math (68.4% vs. 57.9%), 6th grade math (50% vs. 39.5%), and 4th grade math (60% vs. 55.2%). Reading also improved sharply, rising from 39.13% in 2024–2025 to 46.3% in 2025–2026, though it remains slightly below the state's 48.6%. Fourth grade reading, at 57.9% versus the state's 48.8%, was a bright spot.
Science is the main red flag. All-grade science fell to 8% in 2025–2026, far below the state's 25.5% and down from 31.25% the year before. Fifth grade is the weakest grade level, falling below state in all three subjects: math (25% vs. 41.9%), reading (37.5% vs. 54.5%), and science (12.5% vs. 25.9%). State-suppressed results for 7th and 8th grade math and reading and 8th grade science are unknown, not failures. The school's rank moved from the 42nd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 59th in 2024–2025, then to the 50th in 2025–2026, holding 3 stars.
