Summary
Rahn Elementary is a PK–5 school in Eagan, MN, serving 383 students in the Burnsville-Eagan-Savage Schools district, a district ranked near the bottom quarter of Minnesota districts. Rahn itself ranked 570th of 869 Minnesota elementary schools in 2025–2026 (34th percentile, 2 stars), and over the past decade it has generally stayed between the 28th and 41st percentile, never quite reaching the state median. In 2025–2026, proficiency was 41.3% in Math, 44.3% in Reading, and 14.0% in Science. The school beats its district averages in all three subjects but falls below state averages in all three, with Science lagging 11.5 points behind the state. About 58.49% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch — down from 65.68% in 2022–2023 — and the student-teacher ratio improved from 16.2 to 14.9 over the same period.
Compared with nearby schools, Rahn sits in the lower tier of the Eagan/Apple Valley area. It trails its same-district neighbors Gideon Pond Elementary (54th percentile) and William Byrne Elementary (55th) in Math, Reading, and Science, and it is well behind most Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan schools, including Thomas Lake Elementary (92nd), Glacier Hills School - Arts/Science (89th), and Northview Elementary (88th). Thomas Lake, for example, outpaces Rahn by 26.8 points in Math, 24.1 in Reading, and 32.4 in Science. Rahn ranks above only Oak Ridge Leadershipenviron/Health (31st), Indian Mounds Elementary (13th), and Gateway STEM Academy Charter School (1st) among its nearby comparison group.
Results vary sharply by grade. Rahn's 5th grade is a bright spot, scoring 50.0% in Math and 64.4% in Reading — both above district and state — yet the same grade scored only 14.0% in Science, which suggests a science-specific issue rather than a broad cohort weakness. The 4th grade is the clearest concern: 27.3% in Math and 32.7% in Reading, both below district and state. Science overall fell sharply to 14.0% in 2025–2026 from 32.73% the prior year and roughly 44–49% in the two years before that — the most urgent finding in the data. Subgroup results are uneven: English Language Learner students rank at the 55th percentile, while special education students rank at the 12th percentile in the most recent available year.
