Summary

Weaver Elementary is a PK–5 school in Maplewood, Minnesota, serving 442 students as part of the North St. Paul-Maplewood Oakdale district. For 2025–2026, the school ranks 672nd of 869 Minnesota elementary schools (23rd percentile, 1 star), while its district ranks 341st of 458 (26th percentile, 1 star). Weaver's history shows a long decline from the 58th percentile and 3 stars in 2015–2016, a brief rebound to the 31st percentile and 2 stars in 2024–2025, and a slide back to 23rd percentile and 1 star. In 2024–2025, 71.49% of students qualified for free or reduced lunch.

In 2025–2026, Weaver's all-grade math proficiency (36.0%) was above its district (29.5%) but 8.9 points below the state (44.9%). Reading (33.0%) was slightly below the district and 15.6 points below the state, and science (13.7%) was the weakest subject, below both the district (16.8%) and state (25.5%). One striking pattern: 3rd grade topped the district in both math (52.4%) and reading (39.1%), while 4th and 5th grades fell below the district in every tested subject — 4th grade reading, for instance, was 10.2 points below the district. Among nearby schools, Weaver is roughly tied with Richardson Elementary in overall rank and ahead of Justice Alan Page Elementary School in math and reading, but trails Edgerton Elementary in all three subjects and generally scores above most nearby high-poverty St. Paul schools, including The Heights Community School, Saint Paul Online Elementary School, Farnsworth Aerospace Lower, Hazel Park Preparatory Academy, LIFE Prep and Frost Lake Elementary School.

Weaver's relative effectiveness varies by student group — these ranks show how well the school serves specific populations compared with other Minnesota schools, not students' ability. Hispanic students (66th percentile), White students (60th) and English Language Learner students (58th) were relative strengths, while low-income students (27th), Special Education students (23rd), male students (22nd), female students (23rd) and African American students (19th) were weaker; the African American student rank fell from 59th in 2023–2024 to 19th. Weaver's student-teacher ratio of 16.1 is the highest among the nearby schools compared here, even though poverty levels are similar.
