Summary:

The Princeton Public School District in Minnesota serves roughly 3,189 students across 10 schools — three elementary, two middle, and five high — covering PK through grade 12, with four core brick-and-mortar schools enrolling about 94% of all students and six small online, credit-recovery, and transition programs enrolling the rest. At the district level, it ranks 141st of 458, or the 69th percentile with 3 stars.

Among tested schools, Princeton Intermediate School is the clearest academic standout: 56% Math and 51.5% Reading in 2025-2026, both above district and state, with rank climbing from 46th percentile and 2 stars in 2023-2024 to 58th percentile and 3 stars in 2025-2026. Its Science is 19.8%, below district and state. Princeton High School posts strong graduation (94.5%) and dropout (2.9%) figures, plus above-state Science (33.7%) and grade 11 Math (41% vs. the state's 35.3%), but all-grade Reading (34.9%) is well below district (47.2%) and state (48.6%), and its rank fell from 74th percentile and 4 stars to 55th percentile and 3 stars. Princeton Online MN 6-8 earned 4 stars and 77th percentile with Reading (54.5%) and Science (30%) above district and state, though Math (26.1%) is far below both, and with only 25 students results should be read cautiously.

Princeton Middle School holds steady in rank (61st–66th percentile, 3 stars), but all-grade Math (38%), Reading (47%), and Science (20.3%) sit below district and state. Princeton Primary School serves PK–2, so it has no test data, but it reports the lowest student/teacher ratio at 11.1. Princeton Area Learning Center contrasts with 82.1% graduation and 7.1% dropout, below and above district and state respectively. Where scores are suppressed, the figures are unknown — not zero.
