Summary

Eden Lake Elementary is a PK–5 school serving 658 students at 12000 Anderson Lakes Pkwy in Eden Prairie, MN, part of the Eden Prairie Public School District — a district that ranks 50th of 458 in Minnesota (89th percentile, 4 stars). Eden Lake itself is a consistent 4-star school that climbed dramatically from the mid-2010s (53rd percentile in 2015–16) to a high of 90th percentile in 2020–21, then drifted down to 72nd percentile (244 of 869 schools) in 2025–26 — still well above the state average, but below its earlier peak.

Locally, Eden Lake Elementary sits mid-to-lower among nearby high performers: ninth of eleven nearby schools by 2025–26 percentile, and below most of its own district peers, including Forest Hills Elementary, Eagle Heights Spanish Immersion, Cedar Ridge Elementary, Prairie View Elementary, and Oak Point Elementary. Science is the clearest standout — 49.6% proficiency, about 10 points above the district and 24 points above the state, and essentially tied with Cedar Ridge (49.4%). Math (55.5%) and reading (57.5%) are above state averages but 0.6 and 5.7 points below the district, respectively, and lower than most nearby schools.

Grade-level results show a notable 4th-grade dip: 4th-grade math (50%) and reading (46.6%) are the only reported 2025–26 results below state averages, with reading 18 points below the district. Subgroup effectiveness is uneven — special education students rank in the mid-80s percentile (4 stars), while low-SES students are consistently around the 45th–49th percentile at 2 stars, the school's biggest equity concern. Notably, Cedar Ridge has nearly identical poverty rates (30.52% vs 30.7%) and the same student-teacher ratio (13.3) yet scores higher in math and reading, suggesting room to improve without a clear resource disadvantage.

Open Quote Having moved from Colorado we have been nothing less than impressed with Eden Lake School. We receive regular and timely communication from the teachers and the principal. The teachers all seem to be completely dedicated to the futures of their students. Our sons love going to school and we love seeing the creativity and curiosity this school inspires in them.

Open Quote The teachers are extremely helpful, and well informed. The students are excited about going to school, and my daughter is very upset to think that she can not go to school until next year. Even the Bus drivers encourage the kids in finding ways for them to be creative, making the bus ride even more enjoyable for the kids to share and bond. The parents all helped and made efforts to make the year full of fun memories. Close Quote
