Summary:
The Ulen-Hitterdal Public School District contains a single high school, Ulen-Hitterdal Secondary, which serves students in grades 9-12. Located in the rural community of Ulen, Minnesota, the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking and rating over the past few years, ranging from 4 out of 5 stars to 2 out of 5 stars.
Ulen-Hitterdal Secondary's performance on standardized tests varies, with some areas exceeding the state average, such as a 64.29% 10th-grade reading proficiency rate, and others falling below, like a 29.41% 11th-grade math proficiency rate. The school's four-year graduation rate was 84.2% in the 2023-2024 school year, with a 4.4% dropout rate. Socioeconomic factors also play a role, as 39.31% of the school's students were eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high proportion of students from low-income families.
While Ulen-Hitterdal Secondary is the only high school in the district, making direct comparisons difficult, the school's fluctuating performance and mixed test scores suggest areas for improvement, particularly in math instruction. The school's efforts to support students from low-income backgrounds and address any related barriers to learning could also be an important focus area. Overall, the data highlights the need for further investigation and comparison to better understand the school's strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities for growth.
