Summary:
The Grygla Public School District in Minnesota contains a single elementary school, Grygla Elementary, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. While the school has some areas of strength, its overall academic performance appears to be mixed compared to state averages.
Grygla Elementary's proficiency rates in 4th grade math and reading are above the state average, but its 6th grade reading proficiency falls below the state benchmark. The school's overall math and reading proficiency rates are 47.5% and 42.5%, respectively, compared to the state averages of 45.21% and 49.59%. Additionally, Grygla Elementary's science proficiency rate of 36.36% is lower than the state average of 39.56%. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 284th out of 858 Minnesota elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 571st out of 881 in 2023-2024, and its SchoolDigger rating has varied from 2 to 3 stars out of 5.
Grygla Elementary's small student population of 58 and low student-teacher ratio of 7.2 may be contributing factors to its mixed academic performance. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, at 34.48%, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among its student population. While the school's challenges may be reflective of broader district-level factors, further analysis and investigation would be needed to fully understand the factors influencing Grygla Elementary's academic outcomes and identify potential areas for improvement.
