Summary

Farmington Elementary is a PK–5 school serving 493 students in the Farmington Public School District in Farmington, MN, a Twin Cities metro community. Its most recent overall rank is 616th of 869 (29th percentile, 1 star), below the district's own 273rd of 458 (40th percentile, 2 stars). The school's history shows a long-term decline: it ranked in the 89th percentile with 4 stars in 2016-17, fell to the 67th percentile by 2018-19, and has generally hovered in the 29th–42nd percentile range since.

In 2025-26, all-grade proficiency was 41.4% in math (above the district's 38.5%, below the state's 44.9%), 35.7% in reading (below district 42.5% and state 48.6%), and 20.5% in science (above district 15.4%, below state 25.5%). Reading is the clearest weakness — the lowest among all nearby schools — and it is concentrated in the lower grades: 3rd grade reading was 29.4% and 4th grade 30.1%, while 5th grade reached 49.3%, much closer to district and state averages. Math shows a similar pattern, though 5th grade math (41.7%) is essentially at the state average. Science outperforms several same-district peers.

Within its local cluster, Farmington Elementary has the lowest rank: Akin Road Elementary sits at the 30th percentile, Riverview Elementary at 38th, North Trail Elementary at 43rd, and Meadowview Elementary at 46th. Nearby schools outside the district rank much higher — Lake Marion Elementary (89th percentile), Highview Elementary (87th), East Lake Elementary School (85th), Kennedy Elementary (75th), Prairie Creek Community School (71st), and Great Oaks Academy - Grammar (85th), just 0.58 miles away. Farmington Elementary's free/reduced lunch rate (36.51%) is the highest among nearby schools, though its 14:1 student-teacher ratio is better than many. Subgroup effectiveness varies: results for English Language Learner students reached the 94th–96th percentile in earlier years, while special education rankings fell from the 68th percentile to the 43rd and low-SES rankings from the 49th to the 36th.
