Summary:

The Lyle Public School District operates three schools - Lyle Elementary, Lyle Middle, and Lyle High School - that collectively serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The district as a whole is ranked 370 out of 446 districts in Minnesota and is rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Lyle Elementary is the district's lowest-performing school, ranked in the bottom 20% of Minnesota elementary schools with a 1-star rating. The school significantly underperforms the state average in both math and reading proficiency, though 4th-grade students show stronger performance in these areas. Lyle Middle is the district's most concerning school, ranked in the bottom 10% of Minnesota middle schools with a 0-star and 1-star rating. The school has extremely low math and reading proficiency rates compared to state averages.

While Lyle High School has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate and low dropout rate, its academic performance is also well below state standards, with low math proficiency and only slightly above-average reading proficiency. The district's high free and reduced lunch rates suggest significant socioeconomic challenges that may be contributing to the overall academic struggles across all three schools.
