Summary:
The Breckenridge Public School District consists of three schools: Breckenridge Elementary, Breckenridge Senior High, and Breckenridge Middle. The district serves students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade in the Breckenridge area.
Breckenridge Elementary stands out as a strong performer, ranking 224 out of 845 Minnesota elementary schools in 2022-2023 and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school has performed well on MCA-III math and reading tests, with several grade levels exceeding the state average proficiency rates. In contrast, Breckenridge Senior High has maintained a 3-star rating and achieved an 84.2% four-year graduation rate, which is higher than the district and state averages. However, the high school lags behind the state averages on MCA-III math and reading tests, particularly in 11th grade.
The data also reveals some challenges within the district. Breckenridge Middle has consistently been rated 2 stars by SchoolDigger and has lower proficiency rates compared to the district and state on MCA-III math, reading, and science tests. Additionally, Breckenridge Elementary has seen a decline in its SchoolDigger ranking, dropping from 224 in 2022-2023 to 565 in 2024-2025, despite its relatively strong test scores. The district also exhibits socioeconomic disparities, with Breckenridge Elementary having a higher percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients compared to the other schools.
