Summary

Caledonia Senior High is a public high school in Caledonia, Minnesota, serving grades 9–12 to roughly 259 students as part of the Caledonia Public School District. In 2025–2026 it ranked 26th of 473 Minnesota high schools — the 95th percentile, with 5 stars — and its district ranked 15th of 458 districts in the state (97th percentile, 5 stars). That makes it the top-ranked school in its nearby group, ahead of La Crescent Senior High (71st), Spring Grove Secondary (89th), and Houston Secondary (297th). Its rank has rebounded sharply, from the 37th percentile in 2020–2021 to the 84th percentile in 2024–2025 and 95th in 2025–2026.

In 2025–2026, 49.2% of students were proficient in math, 56.5% in reading, and 54.8% in science — above Minnesota's 44.9%, 48.6%, and 25.5%. Science is the clearest strength: the highest among nearby schools with reported data, versus 19.6% at Spring Grove, 27.3% at Rushford-Peterson Senior High, and 29.5% at Mabel-Canton Secondary. Math is the relative weak spot — above the state but below the district's 61.0% — and was below both district and state in 2023–24 (38.67%) and 2024–25 (38.6%). Reading (56.5%) is also below the district's 66.1%, though it reached 66.67% in 2024–25.

Graduation and dropout outcomes are strong: a 94.5% graduation rate and 2.7% dropout rate in 2024–25, compared with 84.9% and 4.2% statewide. The school's low-income subgroup ranked 10th of 377 in 2025–2026, even though it has the lowest free/reduced-lunch rate (16.22%) among nearby schools; female and male students also ranked in the top 10% statewide. Older special education rankings (2021–22 and 2022–23) were low, and no recent figure is available, so that is worth monitoring. The student-teacher ratio is a moderate 13.4.
