Summary

Roseville Area Middle is a 6–8 school in Little Canada, Minnesota, serving 853 students as part of the Roseville Public School District. In 2025–2026 it ranked 259 of 546 Minnesota middle schools (53rd percentile, 3 stars), a substantial rise from roughly the 32nd percentile in the mid-2010s. Its student-teacher ratio was 15.1 in 2024–2025, and 49.47% of students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch, down from 56.43% the previous year.

Among nearby schools, Roseville Area Middle posts the highest reading proficiency and the second-highest math proficiency in the comparison group, and its district — Roseville Public School District (218 of 458, 52nd percentile, 3 stars) — outranks Saint Paul Public Schools (346 of 458), North St. Paul-Maplewood Oakdale (341 of 458), and the other nearby districts. One important caveat: Roseville serves a far less economically disadvantaged population than neighbors such as Washington Technology Middle School (85.43% free/reduced lunch) or Prodeo Academy St. Paul Middle (96.18%), which may partly explain its relative advantage. In absolute terms, math (35.8%), reading (42.6%), and science (12.1%) all remain below district and state averages.

Science is the school's sharpest weakness. At 12.1% proficient, it trails the district's 20.4% and the state's 25.5%, and has fallen from 18.5% in 2022–2023. Seventh-grade math (40.9%) is a bright spot, slightly above the state, but eighth-grade math (30.4%) and eighth-grade science (12.1%) lag well behind. Results also differ widely by student group: White students and Native American students rank in the 87th and 79th percentiles respectively, while low-income, special education, Hispanic, multiracial, and Asian students rank between the 15th and 23rd percentiles. Because some of these groups are small, year-to-year changes should be interpreted cautiously.
