Summary:

The Aspire Academy Charter School district in Minnesota operates two schools - Aspire Academy Elementary and Aspire Academy Middle School. While the middle school outperforms the elementary school across several key metrics, both schools face significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to their students.

The Aspire Academy Middle School has a higher statewide ranking compared to the elementary school, ranking 350 out of 519 Minnesota middle schools for the 2024-2025 school year. Additionally, the middle school has significantly higher reading proficiency rates across all grade levels, with 45.65% of students proficient or better in reading, compared to only 15.15% at the elementary school. The student-teacher ratio is also much lower at the middle school, with 12.6 students per teacher, compared to 47.6 at the elementary school.

However, both schools face significant challenges, with extremely high free/reduced lunch rates of 97.9% at the elementary school and 92.11% at the middle school in 2023-2024. Additionally, proficiency rates in math, reading, and science are low across both schools, with the highest being 28.57% for 7th grade math at the middle school in 2024-2025. The overall low performance of the Aspire Academy Charter School district, ranked 378 out of 446 in Minnesota, suggests that addressing the high poverty levels, class sizes, and academic achievement will be crucial for improving student outcomes.
