Summary

Hendricks High School is a very small public school in Hendricks, MN, serving grades 7–12 with just 59 students in the Hendricks Public School District — a district ranked 111th of 458 in Minnesota (76th percentile, 4 stars), even though the school itself ranks 295th of 473 (38th percentile, 2 stars). That gap is striking, and it reflects a sharp decline: in 2021–22, the school ranked 93rd of 472 (80th percentile, 4 stars).

Academically, 2025–26 results are mixed. Science proficiency of 27.3 is above the state's 25.5 and far above Canby Secondary's 10.1, and 8th-grade science (25.0) tops the state's 16.7. Math (25.0 vs. state 44.9) and reading (32.3 vs. state 48.6) are well below state and district levels, and both lag the district's 54.7 and 53.7. Math is similar to Canby's 23.9, but Canby's reading (40.4) is stronger. Test scores for Mnvss, the same-district school, are suppressed, so no direct academic comparison is possible. Science results swing widely from year to year — 8.33 in 2024–25 — so treat the 2025–26 science gain with caution.

On completion, 2024–25 brought an 80.0% graduation rate (near the state's 84.9%) but a 20.0% dropout rate — about five times the state's 4.2% and far above Canby's 0.0%, though better than Mnvss's 24.4%. A year earlier, Hendricks posted 100% graduation and 0% dropout, showing how much one student can move a small school's numbers. The student-teacher ratio of 8.8 is less than half Canby's 18.1, though Mnvss's 5.8 is lower still, and class size alone doesn't explain the outcome differences. About 47.46% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, close to Mnvss's 48.65% and above Canby's 40.67%.
