Summary

Chanhassen High School is a large public high school serving grades 9–12 with 1,385 students in Chanhassen, Minnesota, part of the Eastern Carver County Public School district in the Twin Cities metro area. The district is highly ranked — 30th of 458 Minnesota districts, in the 93rd percentile with 5 stars — while the school itself ranked 99th of 473 high schools in 2025–2026, placing it in the 79th percentile with 4 stars. That is below its historical peak of 16th of 489 in 2015–2016, and its recent ranks have fluctuated: 85th percentile in 2024–2025, then 81st in each of the two years before that. Current outcomes remain strong, with a 95.7% graduation rate and a 0.2% dropout rate in 2024–2025.

The most useful nearby comparison is Chaska High School, 1.6 miles away and also grades 9–12 in the same district with 1,495 students. The two are nearly identical in overall rank percentile (79th vs. 80th) and have matching graduation rates of 95.7%, well above the district's 94.1% and the state's 84.9%. Chanhassen stands out with a much lower dropout rate (0.2% vs. 1.7%) and a lower free/reduced lunch rate (14.73% vs. 21.14%), and student–teacher ratios are similar (21.4 vs. 21.8). Science is Chanhassen's clearest relative strength: 43.7% proficiency, above Chaska (41.1%), the district (29.9%), and the state (25.5%). Math (47%) is above the state's 44.9% but below Chaska's 51.8% and the district's 62.5%. All-grades reading (44.7%) is the main soft spot, below the state (48.6%), the district (62.6%), and Chaska (46%); note that the reading exams changed labels between years, so year-over-year comparisons should be made cautiously.

Subgroup results show meaningful variation. Results for special education students improved sharply, reaching the 96th percentile in 2025–2026 after 90th the prior year, and female students ranked higher than male students (86th vs. 68th percentile). Results for low-income students have been around the middle. Several other nearby schools — such as alternative and specialized programs serving 7 to 78 students — are not direct benchmarks, since their outcomes largely reflect different missions and student populations.
