Summary

MN International Middle Chr School is a public charter middle school located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, serving 334 students in grades 6-8 and part of the Twin Cities International Schools district.

The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Minnesota middle schools over the past 10 years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its proficiency rates in MCA-III Math and Reading are significantly lower than the state and district averages, with just 15.64% proficiency in Math and 33.13% in Reading, compared to state averages of 45.21% and 49.59%, respectively. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as Female, Male, and Low Socio-Economic Status students, who rank in the bottom 20-30% of Minnesota middle schools in these categories. However, the school's performance for English Language Learner and African American students is relatively better, ranking in the top 30-50% of Minnesota middle schools in these subgroups.

The school's student-teacher ratio has fluctuated significantly, ranging from 16.8 to 67.5 over the past few years, which may impact the quality of instruction and student support. While the school serves a high-poverty student population, with 96.89% to 99.4% of students qualifying for free or reduced-lunch, the consistent 1-star rating and bottom 20% ranking suggest that the school is struggling to provide a quality education to its students, particularly in core academic areas. Targeted interventions, resource allocation, and collaboration with the district and community stakeholders could be crucial in driving meaningful change for MN International Middle Chr School.
