Summary

Park Elementary is a public elementary school located in Le Sueur, Minnesota, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 369 students. It is part of the Le Sueur-Henderson School District, which is ranked 95 out of 446 districts in Minnesota and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Park Elementary has shown inconsistent academic performance over the years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 177 to 572 out of Minnesota elementary schools. In the 2024-2025 school year, Park Elementary ranked 446 out of 872 Minnesota elementary schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, the school has performed well in certain subgroups, such as Hispanic students (ranked 39 out of 249 Minnesota elementary schools in 2023-2024) and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds (ranked 190 out of 764 Minnesota elementary schools in 2024-2025). Park Elementary's math and reading proficiency rates are generally on par with or slightly below the state and district averages, with some notable exceptions, such as higher 4th-grade math and 5th-grade reading proficiency rates compared to the state.

Interestingly, Park Elementary's academic performance is generally on par with or slightly below the nearby schools, such as Oak Crest Elementary (Belle Plaine Public School District) and Le Center Pre K-8 (Tri-City United School District). However, Park Elementary outperforms the nearby Minnesota New Country Elementary (a public charter school) in both math and reading proficiency. The school's relatively high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds may be a contributing factor to its academic performance, and the school may benefit from targeted interventions and support for this population.
