Summary:

The Moose Lake Public School District consists of two schools - Moose Lake Elementary (grades PK-6) and Moose Lake Secondary (grades 7-12). While Moose Lake Elementary has a more average performance, Moose Lake Secondary stands out as a top-performing school in the state, ranking 42nd out of 480 Minnesota high schools.

Moose Lake Secondary boasts a strong 84.2% 4-year graduation rate and a low 4.4% dropout rate. The school outperforms the district and state averages on key test score metrics, including MCA-III Math and Reading proficiency rates. In contrast, Moose Lake Elementary lags behind, with test scores generally below the state averages and a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The data reveals a significant performance gap between the two schools, with Moose Lake Elementary's statewide ranking dropping from 395 out of 845 Minnesota elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 502 out of 872 in 2024-2025. This suggests a potential decline in the elementary school's performance over time.
