Summary:
The Frazee-Vergas Public School District in Minnesota operates two schools: Frazee Elementary and Frazee Secondary. While Frazee Elementary appears to be the stronger performing school, with higher proficiency rates on state assessments and a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, Frazee Secondary has struggled academically, with proficiency rates well below state averages, particularly in 11th grade.
Frazee Elementary has 414 students and a lower student-teacher ratio of 12.9, compared to Frazee Secondary's 388 students and a higher ratio of 16.5. Both schools have high free/reduced lunch rates, with Frazee Elementary at 54.35% and Frazee Secondary at 43.81%, indicating a relatively economically disadvantaged student population. Frazee Secondary has a 84.2% four-year graduation rate but a concerning 4.4% dropout rate.
The significant performance gap between the two schools in the district is an area of concern that warrants further investigation and targeted interventions. While Frazee Elementary is performing at or above state averages in many areas, Frazee Secondary's academic struggles, particularly in Math proficiency, suggest the need for the district to prioritize addressing the challenges faced by the secondary school.
