Summary

Clearbrook-Gonvick Secondary is a rural public high school in Clearbrook, MN, serving 206 students in grades 7–12 as part of the Clearbrook-Gonvick School District. In 2025–2026, the school ranked 276th of 473 Minnesota schools (42nd percentile, 2 stars), down from 176th of 450 (61st percentile, 3 stars) the year before. Its rank has mostly ranged between the 27th and 61st percentiles over the past decade, with a low of 13th percentile in 2020–2021, so the latest result is a pullback within a broad historical range; with only 206 students, small cohort changes can move percentages noticeably.

Academically, the school trails the state in all three tested subjects. Math is the biggest weakness: 15.0% proficiency in 2025–2026, compared with 44.9% statewide and 25.8% in its district. Reading is stronger at 30.8%, but still below the state’s 48.6% and down from around 39.6% to 41.7% in the prior three years. Science was 15.3%, below the state’s 25.5%, though it had been 41.67% in 2023–2024. Nearby, Fosston Secondary is the regional benchmark (33.7% math, 49.2% reading, 21.7% science), while Bagley Secondary is lower in all three (8.5%, 23.9%, 12.9%).

Completion data are mixed. The 2024–2025 graduation rate was 90.6%, above the state’s 84.9% and Bagley’s 84.4%, and close to Fosston’s 92.3%. But the dropout rate was 9.3%, more than double the state’s 4.2% and higher than both neighbors. About 54.37% of students receive free/reduced lunch, similar to Bagley (55.41%) and higher than Fosston (49.61%). The student-teacher ratio has improved from 21.7 in 2022–2023 to 15.2 in 2024–2025, close to Bagley (14.6) but above Fosston (13.3). One standout: the school’s effectiveness ranking for low-income students was 13th of 333 (96th percentile, 5 stars) in 2024–2025 and 44th of 377 (88th percentile, 4 stars) in 2025–2026. Overall, it is a small, high-poverty rural school with relatively strong graduation and some notable subgroup success, but low math proficiency, elevated dropout, and recent reading/science declines remain the main concerns.
