by a student
Thursday, March 10, 2011

I was once a student at Normandale. When I graduated into Valley View (the Edina middle school continuing with the French program) I found that those who went to Normandale had better grades, where kinder, and had a better work ethic. I know that I have a huge bias, but Normandale must be very selective because from my experience, we almost never had new kids and lost many throughout the years who couldn't keep up. That most likely explains how they do so well on tests and contain the positive qualities that I listed above. Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
