Summary

Osakis Secondary is a grades 7–12 school serving 415 students in Osakis, Minnesota, part of the Osakis Public School District, which ranks 102 of 458 Minnesota districts (78th percentile, 4 stars). The school ranked 182 of 473 in 2025–2026 — 62nd percentile, 3 stars — so it is above average statewide but currently trails its own district's overall standing. That gap may come from stronger results at other grade levels in the district.

Math is the school's standout academic strength. All-grade math proficiency is 52.0%, above Minnesota's 44.9% and higher than every nearby high school, including Alexandria Area High School's 38.4% (note that Alexandria serves grades 9–12, so grade bands differ slightly). Completion outcomes are even stronger: a 95.8% graduation rate and a 1.3% dropout rate, far better than the state's 84.9% and 4.2%. Among nearby schools, Sauk Centre Secondary graduates 94.5% with a 2.7% dropout rate, Long Prairie-Grey Eagle Secondary 80.5% with 4.1%, and Kalon Prep Academy 76.0% with 10.8%.

Reading and science are the weaker spots. All-grade reading is 41.7%, below Minnesota's 48.6% and the district's 53.0%; science is 22.1%, below the state's 25.5%, and has fallen sharply from 51.49% in 2023–2024. Eighth-grade science is especially low at 7.6% versus 16.7% statewide. Osakis has also slipped from its historical peak — 93rd percentile in 2016–2017 — to 62nd today, though it remains above median. Recent subgroup trends are mixed: low-income students rose to the 70th percentile and male students to the 71st, while female students fell to the 50th, and the last available special education rankings (2021–22 and 2022–23) sat at the 1st percentile — a real question worth raising with the school.
