Summary

Schoolcraft Learning Community is a public charter elementary school serving grades K-8 in Bemidji, Minnesota, with 196 students. While the school has a relatively small student population, it has been rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average compared to other Minnesota elementary schools.

Academically, Schoolcraft Learning Community struggles to keep pace with the state averages on the MCA-III math and reading assessments, particularly in the upper grades. The school's overall math proficiency rate was 33.59% in 2024-2025, compared to the state average of 45.21%, and its reading proficiency rate was 48.46%, slightly below the state's 49.59%. This pattern of underperformance is consistent across multiple years, suggesting the school may have difficulty maintaining academic progress as students advance through the grades. However, the school's low-income students perform relatively better, ranking in the top 40% of Minnesota elementary schools in this category.

When compared to nearby public elementary schools, such as Northern Elementary and Solway Elementary, Schoolcraft Learning Community generally performs worse on the MCA-III assessments, especially in the upper grades. The charter school's performance is more comparable to the very low-performing Red Lake Elementary and Endazhi-Nitaawiging, which are also located in the region. Additionally, Schoolcraft Learning Community's overall ranking among Minnesota elementary schools has declined over the past several years, dropping from the top 50% in 2014-2015 to the bottom 40% in more recent years.
