Summary

Twin Bluff School is a middle school located in Red Wing, Minnesota, serving grades 5-7 with a total enrollment of 500 students. It is part of the Red Wing Public School District, which is ranked 309 out of 446 districts in Minnesota and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Twin Bluff School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the years, dropping from 99th out of 469 Minnesota middle schools in 2011-2012 to 271st out of 519 in 2024-2025, its academic performance remains a concern. The school's performance on MCA-III assessments is below the state average in both math and reading across all grades, with only 30.02% of students proficient or better in math in 2024-2025, compared to the state average of 45.21%. Additionally, the performance of specific student subgroups, such as Hispanic, Native American, and low-socioeconomic status students, is particularly concerning, ranking in the bottom quartile of Minnesota middle schools.

Interestingly, nearby schools like Zumbrota-Mazeppa Middle School consistently outperform Twin Bluff School on MCA-III assessments, with 55.21% of Zumbrota-Mazeppa students proficient or better in math in 2024-2025. In contrast, Pathways Program Grades 6-7, a small public school about 17 miles from Twin Bluff, has significantly lower academic performance, with only 8.33% of students proficient or better in math and reading in 2023-2024. These comparisons highlight the need for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes at Twin Bluff School.
