Summary

Trek North Middle School is a small public middle school in Bemidji, Minnesota, serving grades 6–8 with 109 students — roughly 36 per grade — operating within the Treknorth High School district and located about half a mile from the far larger Bemidji Middle.

The school's statewide standing has fallen steadily for a decade. It ranked in the 57th–64th percentile of Minnesota middle schools in 2015–16 and 2016–17, but has now spent five consecutive years at 1 star and reached its lowest point on record in 2025–26, at the 13th percentile. In 2025–26, 9.3% of students met standards in math, 22.2% in reading, and 11.1% in science, against statewide figures of 44.9%, 48.6%, and 25.5%. Reading had been the school's reliable strength, holding in the mid-30s for three years before dropping about 13 points in a single year. Math remains the weakest area, and 6th grade is the furthest from benchmark.

Trek North serves a high-poverty population: 66.97% of students qualified for free or reduced lunch in 2024–25, compared with 40.12% at Bemidji Middle. Among the small, high-poverty middle schools nearby, Trek North is the strongest — ahead of Voyageurs Expeditionary Middle School and Cass Lake-Bena Middle School in reading and science — but Bemidji Middle outperforms it by roughly 30 points in each core subject. Class sizes improved sharply, from 27.4 students per teacher in 2022–23 to 12.1 in 2024–25, without a matching rise in scores. One bright spot: special education students rank at the 44th percentile statewide, well above the school's overall standing, and have been its most consistent group for three years.
