Summary:

Cloquet Public School District in Minnesota serves roughly 2,446 students across seven schools — three elementary, one middle, and three high schools, two of which are alternative programs — and the district overall ranks 179 of 458, the 61st percentile, with 3 stars.

Churchill Elementary is the district's academic anchor, ranking 215 of 869 (75th percentile, 4 stars) with the highest all-grade math (64.9%) and reading (58.1%), well above district (48.1%, 51.9%) and state (44.9%, 48.6%) figures, plus the lowest reported student-teacher ratio (10.0). Cloquet Middle is trending upward — from the 54th to the 69th to the 75th percentile, now 4 stars — with math (47.4%) and reading (51.7%) above state, though science lags. Washington Elementary is solid at the 62nd percentile and 3 stars (math 57.8%, reading 52.4%). Cloquet Senior posts strong completion outcomes — a 94.9% graduation rate and 1.6% dropout rate, both better than district and state — and science at 37%, but all-grade math is 29%.

Cloquet Area Alternative Education Programs reports lower outcomes (graduation 77.2%, dropout 4.5%) in an alternative setting with only 74 students, and many grade-level values are suppressed. CAAEP Extended Day Program (7 students) has all listed test scores suppressed, and Shared Time (6 students) has no test-score rows; neither can be fairly ranked on academics from this data, and suppressed scores mean unknown, not zero. District-wide, science improved to 25.9%, moving above the state's 25.5%, while reading declined and math held roughly flat.
