Summary

New Dominion Academy is an alternative public school in Austin, Minnesota, serving grades K-12 with a total enrollment of 101 students. The school is part of the Austin Public School District, which is ranked 399 out of 446 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

According to the available data, New Dominion Academy's academic performance, as measured by the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments (MCA-III), is significantly lower than the state and district averages across various subjects and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in Math and Reading for all grades were just 2.33% and 20.83%, respectively, compared to the state averages of 45.21% and 49.59%. The school's performance is also lower than that of the nearby Austin Community Learning Center, another alternative school within the same district.

Unfortunately, the data provided does not include key metrics such as student-teacher ratio, free and reduced lunch rates, graduation rates, or dropout rates, making it difficult to fully understand the school's performance and context. Without this information, it is challenging to identify the specific factors that may be contributing to the school's academic challenges and to make meaningful comparisons to the surrounding schools. To gain a more comprehensive understanding of New Dominion Academy, additional data and information would be necessary, such as detailed enrollment and demographic data, trends in academic performance over time, and insights from school leadership, teachers, and the local community.
