Summary:
The Lanesboro Public School District contains a single high school, Lanesboro Secondary, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance and characteristics have fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 108th out of 480 schools in 2023-2024 to 273rd out of 476 schools in 2022-2023. Similarly, the school's SchoolDigger rating has varied from 2 stars out of 5 in 2022-2023 to 4 stars out of 5 in 2023-2024.
Academically, Lanesboro Secondary has seen mixed results. In 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in MCA-III Math and Reading were generally lower than the state averages, with the exception of 11th-grade Math, where the school's proficiency rate was higher than the state. The school's proficiency rates in MCA-III Science were also mixed, with the End of Course proficiency rate being higher than the state average, but the 8th-grade proficiency rate being lower. The school's four-year graduation rate in 2023-2024 was 84.2%, and its dropout rate for the same year was 4.4%.
Lanesboro Secondary serves a population with a relatively high free and reduced-price lunch rate of 31.05% in 2023-2024, suggesting a lower socioeconomic status among its students. However, the school's student-teacher ratio of 10.6 in 2023-2024 is relatively low, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention and support for students. Overall, the data suggests that Lanesboro Secondary is facing some challenges, but also has areas of strength that could be built upon to improve the school's performance and outcomes for its students.
