Summary

PIM Arts High School is a charter high school serving grades 9–12 with 349 students in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, a Twin Cities suburb near Edina and Minnetonka. It ranks 124th of 473 Minnesota high schools (74th percentile, 4 stars) in 2025–26 and reports to its own charter district, which ranks 77th of 458 districts (83rd percentile, 4 stars). Its enrollment is smaller than many nearby options, and its student–teacher ratio is 7.8:1, much lower than Edina Senior High's 19.7:1 or Eagle Ridge Academy Charter School's 12.8:1.

Academically, PIM Arts High School is a science-and-reading school. In 2025–26, science proficiency was 53.4%, more than double the state's 25.5% and second in the peer group only to Edina Senior High (83.7%); reading was 58.3%, above the state's 48.6%. Math is the clear weak spot: 24.4%, about 20 points below the state's 44.9%. Among nearby schools with reported math scores, only Lionsgate Academy - Minnetonka (22.7%) is lower, while Edina Senior High (73.8%) and Eagle Ridge Academy Charter School (64.4%) are far ahead. Options at Edina High School and West Education Center Alternative have no usable test-score comparison because the state suppresses their results to protect student privacy—those scores are unknown, not zero.

PIM Arts High School's graduation rate was 82.0% in 2024–25, slightly below the state's 84.9%, and its dropout rate was 5.6%, above the state's 4.2% and far above Edina Senior High's 0.1% or Eagle Ridge Academy Charter School's 1.4%. Graduation has improved for three straight years (65.2% → 77.1% → 82.0%), but it remains below what its low poverty rate (22.06% free/reduced lunch) and very small classes might predict. Two bright spots stand out for parents: low-income students rank at the 80th percentile statewide—above the school's overall 74th—and special education students rank around the 70th. The school's decade-long climb has plateaued in the low-to-mid 70s, so families should see it as stable and clearly stronger than nearby alternative and special-population programs such as Lionsgate Academy - Minnetonka (37.0% graduation), West Education Center Alternative (20.0%), and Tassel Transition, but behind the two selective-comprehensive magnets nearby.

Open Quote Unprofessionally run. They called and left a message minutes before my spouse's interview was to take place with them. I answered and they said they "just filled the position" and that they had "also sent an email". 1) She already left so she could meet with them per their arrangement and 2) The woman lied about sending an email. To summarize, my spouse drove out there only to be turned away the minute she showed up. Think long and hard before having anything to do with this school. Professionally run businesses (charter schools are more business than schools, otherwise the doors close)do not conduct themselves in this manner. Attitude reflects leadership and I can only imagine how wonderful it must be there. Close Quote
