Summary

Prairie View Elementary is a PK–5 public elementary school serving 628 students in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, part of the Eden Prairie Public School District — a suburban Twin Cities community whose district ranks 50th of 458 in Minnesota (89th percentile, 4 stars). In 2025–26, Prairie View ranked 140th of 869 Minnesota elementary schools (84th percentile, 4 stars). That is a strong result, though down from its 2024–25 peak of 74th (92nd percentile, 5 stars); over the previous five years the school generally sat in the top 10–15% of the state, with several top-5% years.

Prairie View outperformed both its district and the state in all core subjects: math 63.3% (district 56.1%, state 44.9%), reading 64.6% (district 63.2%, state 48.6%), and science 43.5% (district 39.6%, state 25.5%). Among nearby schools, it clearly beats Oak Point Elementary, which serves a similar share of low-income students, and it edges Chanhassen Elementary in science. It trails Cedar Ridge Elementary slightly, and sits behind Eagle Heights Spanish Immersion, Scenic Heights Elementary, and Clear Springs Elementary in math and reading. Notably, Forest Hills Elementary achieves much higher results with a similar low-income rate, which suggests room to grow.

Grade-level results are uneven: 3rd grade is the weak spot (reading 50.0% and math 59.4%, both below district), while 4th grade is strong. Science has fallen sharply over four years — from 75.83% in 2022–23 to 43.5% in 2025–26 — making it the clearest improvement area. The school is highly effective for special education students (89th percentile) and English language learners (72nd percentile), but lower for low-income students (60th percentile), an equity gap worth watching. The student–teacher ratio has improved from 15.1 to 12.7, better than most nearby schools.
