Summary:
The Fridley Public School District in Minnesota is home to three high schools: Fridley Senior High, Fridley Moore Lk Area Learning Center, and Transitions School. These schools serve students in grades 9-12 and face significant challenges in terms of academic achievement, resource allocation, and supporting students from disadvantaged backgrounds.
Fridley Senior High is the largest and most established high school in the district, with 799 students enrolled. However, its students perform significantly below state averages on standardized tests, with only 19.69% and 33.66% proficiency in math and reading, respectively. The school also has a relatively high dropout rate of 4.4% and a high percentage of 69.71% free/reduced lunch recipients. In contrast, the smaller Fridley Moore Lk Area Learning Center has even lower test scores and a higher dropout rate of 4.4%, as well as an even higher percentage of 87.61% free/reduced lunch recipients.
The smallest of the three high schools, Transitions School, has just 6 students and limited data available. However, the district as a whole is underperforming compared to state averages, ranking 347 out of 446 districts in Minnesota and receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Targeted interventions and support may be needed to improve outcomes for these schools and the Fridley Public School District.
