Summary

Crosslake Community Seat Based is a public charter elementary school serving 153 students in grades K-8 in Crosslake, Minnesota. The school is part of the Crosslake Community Charter School District, which is ranked 349 out of 446 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Crosslake Community Seat Based has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Minnesota elementary schools, typically in the 500-600 range out of around 850-880 schools. The school's performance on MCA-III assessments is generally below the state averages in both math and reading across all grade levels. Compared to the Crosslake Community Charter School district average, Crosslake Community Seat Based performs slightly better in most subject areas and grade levels. However, the school lags behind nearby public schools like Pine River-Backus Elementary, Cuyuna Range Elementary, and Nisswa Elementary, which all have higher proficiency rates and better statewide rankings.

Crosslake Community Seat Based has a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 37.5% to 51.06% in recent years, which is higher than the nearby public schools. The school also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 8.6 to 10.4 in recent years, which is lower than the nearby public schools. While this could be seen as a potential advantage, it does not seem to be translating into significantly better academic outcomes compared to the surrounding schools.
