Summary

Chaska High School is a large public high school in Chaska, Minnesota, serving about 1,495 students in grades 9–12 as part of the Eastern Carver County Public School district in the Twin Cities suburbs. It is ranked 94th of 473 Minnesota high schools in 2025–2026 (80th percentile, 4 stars), placing it among the stronger high schools in a district ranked 30th of 458 districts statewide (5 stars).

The closest true peer is Chanhassen High School, 1.6 miles away and in the same district, with 1,385 students and a 2025–2026 rank of 99th of 473 (4 stars). The two schools post similar results: both had a 95.7% graduation rate in 2024–2025, well above the district's 94.1% and the state's 84.9%. Chaska's dropout rate of 1.7% is below the state's 4.2% but higher than Chanhassen's 0.2%, and Chaska's free/reduced lunch rate of 21.14% is higher than Chanhassen's 14.73% — yet Chaska still matches or slightly exceeds Chanhassen in math and reading. The other nearby schools are small alternative or special-purpose programs with enrollments under 80, and comparing them directly with Chaska High School would be misleading.

On 2025–2026 high school exams, Chaska scored above the district and state in math (51.8% in 11th grade vs. 35.3% statewide), reading (46.0% in 10th grade vs. 42.5%) and science (41.1% vs. 35.0%), though slightly behind Chanhassen in science. Math improved from 44.33% the prior year, while reading and science fell; the reading and science exams changed to MCA-IV, which may explain part of that shift. Graduation has stayed between 94.4% and 95.8% for five straight years, a major strength. Some student groups, including low-income students, saw declines, while special education students improved markedly to the 93rd percentile (5 stars).
