Summary

Glacier Hills School - Arts/Science is a K–5 elementary school in Eagan, Minnesota, serving 707 students as part of the Rosemount-Apple Valley-Eagan district in the Twin Cities south metro. On the 2025–26 statewide ranking it placed 99th of 869 Minnesota elementary schools — the 89th percentile, 4 stars — and it has never fallen below the 84th percentile in ten years of rankings.

Its results sit well above both its district and the state: 64.5% proficiency in math, 68.0% in reading and 44.3% in science — roughly nineteen points above Minnesota in every subject, and double digits above its own district in math and reading. Among nearby schools, Woodland Elementary (about a mile away) ranks higher overall at the 95th percentile, but is only marginally ahead in reading and slightly behind in science, while Thomas Lake Elementary is close to a mirror image. Math is the relative soft spot, at 5th of 8 in-district peers, and grade-level math slides from 74.5% in 3rd grade to 49.1% in 5th. Deerwood Elementary, 1.1 miles away with a nearly identical share of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranks about 20 percentile points lower.

Over the past three years the school has raised outcomes across the student groups it tracks — no group now ranks below the 76th percentile, and special education, English learner and low-income students each gained more than 20 percentile points. Worth watching: a four-year softening in overall math, the 5th-grade math dip, and a science decline that coincides with a statewide test-version change.

What people are saying

by a parent
Friday, September 23, 2011

This school emphasizes real education and social adjustment over test scores. Often, too, the test scores are skewed because of the influx of older (2nd & 3rd grade) students from other schools whose parents only recently discovered the quality here. It is moderately diverse and extremely welcoming, despite its MN suburban status. The administration is minimal and very effective; the teachers are dedicated, and stay on the cusp of new education trends. The students all love it there (I've talked to them). Close Quote
