Summary:
Gentry Academy High is the only high school in the Gentry Academy Charter School district, serving grades 9–12 with 134 students at 1420 County Road E East in Vadnais Heights, Minnesota. Because it is the sole high school in the district, there is no other local high school to compare it against, so the most useful comparisons are to the state of Minnesota and to the school's own recent results across years.
Completion outcomes are the school's strongest feature. The 2024–2025 graduation rate is 93.3%, well above the state's 84.9%, and the dropout rate is 0.0% compared with 4.2% statewide. Reading and science also come in above state levels in 2025–2026: reading proficiency is 53.3% versus 48.6% statewide, and science is 40% versus 25.5% statewide. Math is the clear weak point, with proficiency at 27.3% — below the state's 44.9% and down from 42.31% the year before. Reading dipped year over year as well, from 60.53% to 53.3%, while science improved from 31.82% to 40%.
The school's ranking history reflects this mixed picture. It moved from 338th of 480 schools with 1 star and 30th percentile in 2023–2024, up to 86th of 450 with 4 stars and 81st percentile in 2024–2025, then to 139th of 473 with 4 stars and 71st percentile in 2025–2026. Note that with only 134 students, each student represents a large share of any percentage, so results can swing sharply from year to year. District-wide figures cover a broader grade span, so the high-school grade-level results are the better reference point.
