Summary:
The Saint Cloud Math and Science Academy district in Minnesota operates two schools - an elementary school and a middle school. Both schools serve predominantly African American student populations from low-income communities, and they are struggling to meet state academic standards.
The Saint Cloud Math and Science Academy elementary school and St. Cloud Math & Science Middle school have extremely high free/reduced lunch rates, indicating high levels of poverty. Academically, students at both schools score significantly below state averages on math and reading assessments, with proficiency rates as low as 10% in 5th grade math. The elementary school is ranked in the bottom 20% of Minnesota elementary schools, and neither school has received a strong rating from SchoolDigger.
Overall, the data paints a concerning picture of the academic performance and demographic makeup of the schools in the Saint Cloud Math and Science Academy district. Addressing the significant achievement gaps and supporting these high-poverty, predominantly African American student populations will be critical for improving educational outcomes in the area.
