Summary

Dilworth-Glyndon-Felton Elementary is a public elementary school serving 624 students in grades PK-4 in Dilworth, Minnesota, which is part of the Dilworth-Glyndon-Felton School District. While the school has seen some strong performance from its Hispanic student population, it has struggled to maintain consistent academic achievement across all student groups and subject areas.

Dilworth-Glyndon-Felton Elementary has consistently lower proficiency rates in both Math and Reading compared to the state average. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rate in Math was 53.57% compared to the state average of 45.21%, and in Reading, the school's proficiency rate was 38.5% compared to the state average of 49.59%. The school's performance has fluctuated over the years, with the school ranking between 156 and 523 out of 872 Minnesota elementary schools. In contrast, Hawley Elementary, located about 18 miles away, is a high-performing school that consistently outperforms the state average in both Math and Reading.

The increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Dilworth-Glyndon-Felton Elementary, from 21.48% in 2021-2022 to 39.44% in 2022-2023, may be a contributing factor to the school's relatively lower academic performance compared to the state average. This could indicate that the school is serving a higher proportion of students from low-income families, who may face additional challenges in their educational experiences. The school's proximity to high-performing schools like Hawley Elementary highlights the potential for improvement, and addressing socioeconomic factors may be a key focus area for the school and Dilworth-Glyndon-Felton School District.
