GOA School of Logic

GOA School of Logic is a small public charter middle school in Eagan, Minnesota, serving grades 5–8 with 101 students in the Great Oaks Academy Charter School district, which ranks 23rd of 458 districts statewide.

Academically, GOA has been consistently high-ranked: 55th of 546 Minnesota middle schools in 2025–2026 (90th percentile, 5 stars). Reading is its clearest strength at 63.1% proficiency, second among nearby schools behind Century Middle School and above Rosemount Middle, Scott Highlands Middle, and McGuire Middle. Math is 52.2%, above the state’s 44.9% but below its district’s 65.2% and behind Century and Kenwood Trail Middle School. Science is the weakest subject at 21.1%, below both the district’s 29.4% and the state’s 25.5%, and below Century, Rosemount, and Scott Highlands. In 6th grade, GOA’s reading (71.9%) and math (54.7%) are the highest among nearby schools with data; by 8th grade, reading remains solid at 64.1%, but math (48.7%) and science (21.1%) trail top nearby schools.

One standout metric is the school’s effectiveness with low socio-economic status students: a rank of 10th of 458 (98th percentile, 5 stars) in 2025–2026, the strongest subgroup result in this dataset. Female students rank in the 92nd percentile, while male students rank in the 80th. Enrollment is 101, far smaller than nearby schools that enroll 692–1,228 students. The free/reduced lunch rate is moderate at about 20.8%, and the 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio of 16 is close to neighboring schools, though the 2023–2024 ratio of 37.3 is an outlier that should be interpreted cautiously. The closest schools, Robert Boeckman Middle School and Levi P. Dodge Middle School in Farmington Public School District, rank in the 52nd and 34th percentiles, so GOA stands out sharply in its immediate area. Its main relative weaknesses are science and 8th grade math, and its small size means yearly changes should be watched over time.
