Summary

Becker Middle is a grades 6–8 school in Becker, MN, enrolling 656 students as part of the Becker Public School District. It is rated 4 stars and ranked in the 81st percentile statewide in 2025–2026, above the district’s 70th-percentile rank. The school has a relatively lower share of students eligible for free/reduced lunch (21.65%) than most nearby regular middle schools, and its student-teacher ratio is 18.5.

Academically, Becker’s reading proficiency (52.2%) is above both district and state averages, and its math proficiency (50.0%) is above the state but slightly below the district. Science is the weakest area: all-grade science proficiency is 20.1%, below district and state, though 8th-grade science is above the state 8th-grade mark. One standout is 8th-grade math, where Becker’s 59.0% is well above the state’s 42.3%. Compared with nearby schools, Becker ranks 5th of 8 comparable middle schools: it trails Prairie View Middle School (87th percentile), Zimmerman Middle (85th), Annandale Middle School (84th), and Monticello Middle (84th), while leading Buffalo Community Middle (80th), Big Lake Middle School (67th), and Kaleidoscope Middle School (60th).

Becker’s long-term trend moved from 5-star, top-decile performance before 2020 to 4 stars in the 83rd–85th percentile range, a dip to the 75th percentile in 2024–2025, and a rebound to 81st in 2025–2026. Subgroup results are uneven: male students rank in the 84th percentile, while female, low-income, and special education students rank below the school’s overall 81st percentile, with notable declines for female and low-income students in recent years. Overall, Becker is a solid, above-state 4-star school with strong 8th-grade math, reading above district and state, and science plus uneven subgroup performance as the main areas to watch.
