Summary:
The Sauk Rapids-Rice Public Schools district in Minnesota is home to four elementary schools: Mississippi Heights Elementary, Pleasantview Elementary, Rice Elementary, and Hillside Early Childhood Center. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade.
Among the four schools, Pleasantview Elementary stands out as the top performer, consistently scoring above the district and state averages in math and reading proficiency across all grades. The school also has a lower student-teacher ratio compared to the other schools in the district. Rice Elementary also performs well, often exceeding the district and state averages in math and reading, particularly in the upper grades.
While the district as a whole is ranked 240 out of 446 in Minnesota and rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, the individual schools within the district show significant variation in their performance and rankings. The inclusion of Hillside Early Childhood Center in the data set highlights the district's focus on early childhood education, which may be particularly beneficial for the population it serves, as indicated by the high free/reduced lunch rate at the school.
