Summary:
The Red Lake Public School District in Minnesota operates two middle schools: Red Lake Middle School and Red Lake Middle Level Alternative Learning Center. Both schools have consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Minnesota middle schools, with 0-star ratings from SchoolDigger, indicating very low performance.
The data shows that proficiency rates in Math and Reading on the MCA-III assessments at both schools are significantly lower than the state averages. For example, in 2024-2025, the overall Math proficiency rate at Red Lake Middle School was just 1.33%, compared to the state average of 45.21%. Additionally, Red Lake Middle School has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 84.53% in 2023-2024, and a student-teacher ratio of 20.9, which is higher than the state average.
The consistently low performance of the middle schools in the Red Lake Public School District suggests that significant interventions and support may be needed to improve student outcomes and move the schools out of the bottom tier of performance in the state. The data indicates that the district and its middle schools are struggling to provide a quality education to their students, and targeted efforts may be necessary to address the challenges they face.
