High Schools in Red Lake Public School District

The Red Lake Public School District in Minnesota is home to two high schools: Red Lake Secondary and Red Lake Alternative Learning. Both schools have consistently underperformed compared to state averages across a range of metrics, including statewide rankings, test scores, graduation rates, and dropout rates.

According to the data, neither Red Lake Secondary nor Red Lake Alternative Learning can be considered standout schools in the district. Red Lake Secondary has ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Minnesota high schools over the past few years, while Red Lake Alternative Learning has an even lower ranking, placing 486 out of 489 Minnesota high schools in the 2016-2017 school year.

Both schools face significant challenges, including low graduation rates, high dropout rates, and significantly lower proficiency rates in MCA-III Math and Reading compared to state averages. Additionally, the high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients at both schools suggest that the student population faces significant socioeconomic challenges, which may be contributing to the schools' poor academic performance. Addressing these issues will likely require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to identify and address the root causes of the schools' underperformance within the Red Lake Public School District.
