Summary:
There is one middle school in the Annandale Public School District in Minnesota: Annandale Middle School, which serves grades 6–8, enrolls 466 students, and is located at 125 Cherry Ave N in Annandale. The district as a whole ranks 42 of 458 districts in the state, placing it in the 91st percentile with 5 stars.
Because it is the only middle school in the district, Annandale Middle School is the standout by default, and its numbers back that up. In 2025–2026 it ranks 85 of 546 Minnesota middle schools, in the 84th percentile with 4 stars. Reading is its most consistent strength: all-grade reading is 58.3%, 9.7 percentage points above the state, and every tested grade beats the state average, with 8th-grade reading at 67.7% (17.7 points above the state). Eighth grade is the strongest level overall — 8th-grade math is 63.1%, a full 20.8 points above the state. All-grade math is 51.1%, 6.2 points above the state but 3.8 points below the district all-grade average of 54.9%. Science is the most complicated metric: the school's all-grade science score of 18.8% trails the district's 29.7% and the state's 25.5%, yet the like-for-like 8th-grade science result of 18.8% is 2.1 points above the state's 8th-grade figure, since the district and state all-grade science numbers cover additional grades.
Two things are worth monitoring. First, the school's percentile rank has eased from 90 to 88 to 84 over three school years, and proficiency fell in all three subjects from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026 — math by 5.49 points, reading by 2.51 points, and science by 6.8 points. The district also declined in all three subjects, while state declines were much smaller, so the school's math and science drops stand out. Second, context metrics are moderate: 28.97% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch — roughly 135 students — and the student/teacher ratio of 18.8 implies about 25 teachers for the 466 students.
