917 DCALS Main

Public Grades 8-12

Summary

917 DCALS Main is a public high school in Rosemount, Minnesota, serving grades 8-12 with 206 students. While the school has a more diverse student population compared to nearby schools, it has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Minnesota high schools and faces challenges with lower graduation rates, higher dropout rates, and significantly lower academic performance.

One key differentiator is the school's racial diversity, with 63.11% White, 10.68% African American, 16.02% Hispanic, and 7.28% two or more races in the 2022-2023 school year. However, the four-year graduation rate at 917 DCALS Main has been consistently lower than the state average, ranging from 42.4% to 58.7% in recent years, significantly below the high graduation rates of nearby Eagan Senior High (95.1%) and Eastview Senior High (93.0%). The school also has higher dropout rates, ranging from 2.8% to 6.5% in recent years, compared to 1.8% at Eagan Senior High and 2.3% at Eastview Senior High.

Academically, 917 DCALS Main's performance, as measured by the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments (MCA-III), is significantly lower than the state and Intermediate School District 917 averages. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 11.11% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in Math, compared to the state average of 34.99% and the district average of 6.67%. This lower academic achievement, combined with the school's higher percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds (41.26%), suggests that 917 DCALS Main faces unique challenges compared to the high-performing Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan district schools.
