Summary:
Edgerton Elementary is the only elementary school in the Edgerton Public School District in Minnesota. It serves grades PK–5 to 209 students at 423 1st Ave W, Edgerton. Because it is the district's sole elementary campus, its results are the district's elementary results. The district overall ranks 254 of 458 Minnesota districts (45th percentile, 2 stars), but the school's own rank has slipped from 553 of 881 (37th percentile, 2 stars) in 2023–2024 to 649 of 869 (25th percentile, 1 star) in 2025–2026. The school reports a 12.8:1 student-teacher ratio and 36.84% free/reduced lunch participation.
Reading is the relative bright spot. In 2025–2026, all-grades reading was 40.4% proficient, above the district's 39.6% but below the state's 48.6%. Third grade reading, at 46.9%, is essentially at the state average of 46.8%. Fourth grade math, at 53.3%, is close to the state's 55.2% and is the school's highest 2025–2026 result. In 2024–2025, reading was 45.12%, well above the district's 38.5% and only 4.47 points below the state.
Science is the most urgent concern. All-grades science fell to 3.7% proficient in 2025–2026 from 23.08% in 2024–2025, far below the district's 16.7% and the state's 25.5%. Fifth grade math and science are both at 3.7%, against statewide figures of 41.9% and 25.9%. All-grades math dropped 5.32 points to 33.7%, and reading dropped 4.72 points. With only 209 students, grade-level cohorts are small, so one or two students can shift a rate by several points—multi-year patterns are more reliable than single-year swings. The clearest priorities to investigate are the 5th-grade cohort's math and science performance, while protecting the strengths in early reading and 4th-grade math.
