Summary:
This area contains just one public school: Marine Village School, an elementary school serving grades K–5 in Marine On Saint Croix, Minnesota. No middle, high, or alternative schools appear in the data, and the school also makes up its own district, Marine Village School. Enrollment is 92 students, and the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio is 22.7 — roughly the equivalent of four teachers, though actual staffing may differ. The 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch rate is 14.13%, a relatively low figure.
Marine Village School is a high performer relative to Minnesota. The district is rated 5 stars, ranked 38 of 458 districts (92nd percentile), while the school holds 4 stars in 2025–2026, ranked 154 of 869 (82nd percentile). That is a sharp rise from 3 stars in both 2023–2024 (60th percentile) and 2024–2025 (55th percentile) — a jump of 238 rank positions and 27 percentile points in a single year. Reading is the standout: 71.1% of all grades were proficient in 2025–2026 against 48.6% statewide, with 3rd grade at 68.2% versus 46.8% and 4th grade at 68.8% versus 48.8%. Math was also above the state at 55.6% versus 44.9%; 3rd grade math reached 68.2% versus 57.9%, while 4th grade was nearly level with the state at 56.3% versus 55.2%. Year over year, math rose 9.45 points and reading 14.34 points.
Some results are suppressed by the state and are simply unknown — not zeros and not signs of weakness. That includes 2025–2026 science and 5th grade math and reading. In 2024–2025, science was 27.27% versus 26.15% statewide, the lowest subject reported that year. With only 92 students, percentages can swing noticeably from a handful of students, so single-year changes should be read with care. Overall, the available data describe a small, improving elementary school with notably strong reading outcomes and math above state averages.
