Elementary Schools in Gateway STEM Academy

Gateway STEM Academy Charter School is the sole elementary school located in the Gateway STEM Academy district in Burnsville, Minnesota, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 140 students.

The Gateway STEM Academy Charter School has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Minnesota elementary schools over the past three school years, with 0-1 star ratings from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in Math and Reading are significantly lower than the state averages, indicating that students are not meeting academic standards at the same level as their peers across Minnesota. With nearly 98% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, the school serves a predominantly low-income student population, which can present unique challenges in terms of providing resources and support for student learning.

The school's relatively high student-teacher ratio of 20:1 may suggest that the school is facing challenges in terms of staffing and resources, which could contribute to the low academic performance. Overall, the data indicates that Gateway STEM Academy Charter School is a struggling school that is not meeting the academic needs of its students, and significant improvements and interventions may be needed to improve student outcomes.
