Summary

Edina Senior High is a large comprehensive public high school in Edina, Minnesota, serving grades 9–12 with 2,641 students as part of the Edina Public School District, which ranks 7th of 458 Minnesota districts. The school is ranked #1 of 473 Minnesota high schools for 2025–2026 with 5 stars — and that is no one-year spike. It was also #1 in 2024–2025 and 2023–2024, #3 in 2022–2023, and has stayed in the top 25 since at least 2015–2016.

Academically, students post very high proficiency rates on 2025–2026 MCA exams: 73.8% in Math, 74.0% in Reading, and 83.7% in Science, all well above state averages of 44.9%, 48.6%, and 25.5%. Science is the standout — more than three times the state all-grade rate. Completion outcomes are just as strong: a 95.7% graduation rate versus 84.9% statewide, and a 0.1% dropout rate versus 4.2% statewide, with graduation up from 89.4% in 2020–2021. The school is also unusually effective across student groups — every listed subgroup earns 5 stars, including Special Education Students (#1 of 224), Male Students (#1 of 395), Asian Students (#1 of 78), and Multi-racial Students (#1 of 75). Even its lowest-ranked group, Low Socio Economic Status Students, places #18 of 377, in the 95th percentile.

Compared with nearby schools, Edina Senior leads in most reported measures. Eagle Ridge Academy Charter School is the closest academic peer at #5 statewide, but Edina Senior is higher in overall rank, graduation (95.7% vs 88.2%), and all-grade test scores. Other nearby options are very different settings: Options at Edina High School and Edina Virtual Pathway are small alternative and virtual programs, Tassel Transition is a grade-12-only program, and PIM Arts High School and Lionsgate Academy - Minnetonka rank #124 and #125. Edina Senior also has a comparatively lower free/reduced lunch rate than these nearby schools. Overall, it combines top-tier results with strong performance across subgroups.
