Summary

BlueSky Charter School is a mid-sized charter school in Bloomington, MN, serving 634 students in grades 6–12, with a 47% free/reduced lunch rate and a 13.7 student-teacher ratio.

In 2025–2026, BlueSky ranked 298 of 473 Minnesota schools (37th percentile, 2 stars), up from 22nd percentile in 2023–2024 but below its 2021–2022 peak. Its district rank is 319 of 458 (30th percentile, 2 stars). The school’s graduation rate improved to 66.6% in 2024–2025, still below the state’s 84.9%, and its dropout rate fell from 18.6% in 2020–2021 to 6.3% in 2024–2025. Compared with nearby schools, BlueSky’s latest rank is higher than Richfield Senior High, Rosemount Area Learning Center, and Kennedy High School, though those comparisons are imperfect because BlueSky serves grades 6–12 while most nearby schools serve grades 9–12.

Academically, reading is a relative strength: all-grade proficiency is 40.1%, only 8.5 points below the state and higher than Richfield Senior High (34.1%) and Kennedy High School (19.1%), though 7th grade reading is far below state while 6th grade is above. Math is the biggest weakness, with all-grade proficiency at 17.1% versus 44.9% statewide, and every reported grade below state by roughly 20–26 points. Science is 17.6% versus 25.5% statewide. For subgroups, special education students ranked 54th percentile (3 stars) in 2025–2026 and 81st percentile (4 stars) in 2024–2025, above the school overall; low-income students ranked 14th percentile (1 star), the weakest current subgroup. Nearby, Watershed High School’s most recent rank was 275 of 480 (43rd percentile, 2 stars) in 2023–2024, while Richfield College Experience Prg and Beacon ALP have suppressed 2025–2026 test data, so some comparisons are unavailable.
