Summary

Akin Road Elementary is a PK–5 school serving 479 students in Farmington, Minnesota, part of Farmington Public School District, and it is the smallest of the district's elementary schools in this comparison. The school holds a 2-star rating and ranks 605th of 869 Minnesota elementary schools (30th percentile) for 2025–2026. About 30.3% of students receive free or reduced-price lunch, and the student-teacher ratio is 14.9. Its percentile rank has drifted downward over time, from 47th in 2017–2018 and 2021–2022 to 30th today.

For 2025–2026, 41.7% of students were proficient in math, 41.9% in reading, and 9.2% in science. Math is the relative bright spot, above the district-wide figure of 38.5% but below the state's 44.9%, while reading trails both the district (42.5%) and the state (48.6%). Science is the clearest weakness: at 9.2%, it is the lowest among same-district elementaries, well below the district's 15.4% and the state's 25.5%, and down sharply from 35.6% in 2022–2023. Among nearby options, Meadowview Elementary, less than a mile away, posts 48.0% math, 46.2% reading, and 24.2% science, while Great Oaks Academy - Grammar reaches 73.8%, 60.7%, and 33.0%.

School effectiveness varies widely across student groups. Ratings are strongest for English Language Learner students and weakest for students in special education and students from low-income families; special education effectiveness fell from the 40th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 10th in 2025–2026. Demographics alone do not explain results: North Trail Elementary and Meadowview serve similar shares of low-income students yet post higher scores in all three subjects. For families, the clearest priorities at Akin Road are science, early reading (3rd-grade reading is 34.2%), and added support for special education and low-income students.
