Summary:
Eden Prairie Public School District serves seven elementary schools — six traditional PK–5 schools plus Eden Prairie Online Elementary, which serves K–5 — with 4,042 students enrolled. The district ranks 50th of 458 in Minnesota (89th percentile, 4 stars) and outperforms the state in every subject: Math 56.1% proficient vs. 44.9%, Reading 63.2% vs. 48.6%, and Science 39.6% vs. 25.5%. The six traditional schools enroll 3,889 students, averaging about 648 each, while Eden Prairie Online Elementary enrolls 153.
Two schools stand out. Forest Hills Elementary (31/869, 96th percentile, 5 stars) leads Math at 77.0% and Science at 56.8% — 31.3 points above the state — and has climbed steadily in rank from 54 to 45 to 31. Eagle Heights Spanish Immersion (29/869, 97th percentile, 5 stars) leads Reading at 78.6% and posts the highest single grade-level results in the data: 5th-grade reading 86.4% and 4th-grade math 83.9%. Cedar Ridge Elementary is the most improved, with Science up 22.8 points to 49.4% and rank rising from 148th to 97th. Notably, Forest Hills Elementary has the highest poverty rate among traditional schools (35.82% FRL) yet the top Math and Science results.
Eden Prairie Online Elementary is the clear outlier: smallest enrollment (153), highest FRL (58.82%), and lowest proficiency in every subject (Math 34.5%, Reading 34.6%, Science 16.7%), ranking 650/869 with 1 star — though it improved in Math and Science year over year, and its 3rd- and 4th-grade Math/Reading results are suppressed by the state. Prairie View Elementary fell from 5 stars to 4 after declines in all three subjects, and Oak Point Elementary (70 → 156 → 188) and Eden Lake Elementary (135 → 194 → 244) have both trended downward, though nearly all traditional schools remain above state averages.
