Summary

Little Canada Elementary is a public elementary school serving 634 students in grades K-6 in the Roseville Public School District in Minnesota. According to the data, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Minnesota elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Little Canada Elementary significantly underperforms compared to the district and state in both math and reading proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 19.1% of students were proficient in math, compared to 37.78% for the district and 45.21% for the state. Similarly, only 25.99% of students were proficient in reading, compared to 45.45% for the district and 49.59% for the state. The school also struggles to serve its diverse student population, ranking in the bottom quarter of Minnesota elementary schools for several student subgroups, including Asian students, English Language Learners, and students with special needs.

The nearby Parkview Center School and Edgerton Elementary, both part of the Roseville Public School District, significantly outperform Little Canada Elementary in academic proficiency, with higher rankings and better test scores. Additionally, Little Canada Elementary has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 38.47% to 58.43% over the past three school years, and a relatively high student-teacher ratio, which may be contributing factors to the school's poor academic performance.

I have had a chance to visit Little Canada Elementary School a few times over the last three months. I find the school holds great merits. The staff is quite approachable, and show great support to the diverse student body. The support net for student individual learning needs appears amazing. The head administrator was knowledgeable and freindly as were the office staff. Close Quote
