Summary

Lionsgate Academy - Shoreview is a small public school in Shoreview, Minnesota, serving 189 students in grades 7–12 as part of the Lionsgate Academy district. Its recent state ranking is modest and quite volatile — 323rd of 473 schools (32nd percentile, 2 stars) in 2025–2026, after 19th percentile in 2024–2025 and 59th percentile in 2022–2023 — a pattern common in schools with small cohorts, where a few students can shift results sharply from year to year.

What sets this school apart from nearby options is its support-heavy setup. Its student-teacher ratio was 3.6 in 2024–2025, far lower than Roseville Area Senior High's 21.6 or AFSA High School's 19.7, and closer to small specialized programs. Its free/reduced-lunch rate of 28.57% is the lowest among nearby comparison schools, which range from 36.36% up to 66.39%. Science is the clear academic bright spot: 42.9% of students were proficient in 2025–2026, above the district's 39.4% and well above the state's 25.5%, and 8th-grade science (33.3%) far exceeded the state's 16.7%. Math is the biggest gap, at 19.2% versus 44.9% statewide — a long-running pattern rather than a one-year dip. Reading has improved gradually to 38.3%, still below the state's 48.6% but ahead of nearby Roseville Area Senior High and AFSA High School (both 34%). The school's special education subgroup ranked in the 67th percentile in 2025–2026 and 94th percentile in 2023–2024, much stronger than its overall ranking.

Graduation is the most challenging measure: 32.2% in 2024–2025, far below the state's 84.9%, though above some alternative settings such as East View Academy (17.6%). Dropout was 0.0% in each of the last three years, so students are generally not reported as leaving school without completing — an unusual combination that may reflect transfers or students taking longer than four years. Some results, including the school's Science End-of-Course figure for 2025–2026, were suppressed by the state and are unknown, not zero. Families should weigh the science strengths, the low student-teacher ratio, and the special education performance against the math and graduation gaps.
