SchoolDigger Rank ?

of 869 Minnesota Elementary Schools

Better than 10% of Minnesota elementary schools

Summary

Evergreen Park Elementary-STEM is a PK–5 school with 422 students in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, part of the Anoka-Hennepin School District, and it serves a high-poverty population — about 72.75% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. It ranks 778th of 869 Minnesota elementary schools in 2025–2026, the 10th percentile at 1 star, while the district overall sits at 184th of 458 (60th percentile, 3 stars). That gap is not new: Evergreen's percentile rank has ranged from 9th to 19th over the past decade, with most years in the low teens.

Proficiency runs well below district and state levels. In 2025–2026, 23.4% of students met standards in math, 23.5% in reading, and just 8.8% in science, compared with district rates of 51.0%, 50.9%, and 27.1%. Science is the sharpest concern and has slid fast, from 25.97% in 2023–2024 to 16.13% to 8.8%. The contrast with nearby schools is striking. Monroe Elementary School - MSE, in the same district less than a mile away, ranks 69th percentile with 64.6% math and 54.1% reading. Northport Elementary (80.12% free/reduced lunch) and Garden City Elementary (77.05%) also post stronger results despite similar or higher poverty. Evergreen's classes are comparatively small, with a student-teacher ratio of 11.3, so poverty and class size alone don't account for the outcomes.

The clearest bright spots are 5th-grade reading at 36.7% — the school's strongest subject-grade result, though still below district and state — and the fact that Evergreen outperforms Brooklyn Center Elementary School in every core subject. Subgroup results are uneven, with students in special education and students from low-income backgrounds ranking in the bottom fifth of schools statewide. Overall, families should weigh the favorable class sizes and STEM designation against persistently low proficiency, especially in science, and a bottom-decile ranking that has held for about ten years.

My child attended K-5 here. She has had the most wonderful teachers. She is also on an IEP, the teachers and school in general have been amazing making the needed modifications for her to do well. They have advocated for her and been great with keeping me up to date on how she is doing. The staff has been truly remarkable. Bullying issues are dealt with immediately. The curriculum of world studies has been great, she has learned about different cultures and how we are all connected in different ways. They start Spanish in Kindergarten and the children have so many great opportunities to shine and learn. I love the staff and the school and would recommend it to anyone looking for a diverse school of learning. Close Quote
