Summary

Spring Lake Park Senior High is a large comprehensive public high school in Spring Lake Park, Minnesota, serving grades 9–12 with 1,909 students as part of Spring Lake Park Public Schools. It is by far the largest school in its immediate area: nearby SLP Schools Online Secondary (43 students), Spring Lake Park High School ALP (64), Secondary Lighthouse (34), Mounds View Alternative Learning Center (114), and Metro Heights Academy (198) are all much smaller alternative, online, or special-purpose settings — Spring Lake Park Senior High enrolls more students than all of them combined.

The school ranks 263 of 473 in 2025–26 (44th percentile, 2 stars), closely matching its district's 264 of 458 (42nd percentile, 2 stars). Completion outcomes are a relative strength: the 2024–25 graduation rate was 88.5%, equal to the district and 3.6 points above the state's 84.9%, while the 2.8% dropout rate was below the state's 4.2%. Test scores are weaker — math proficiency of 32.2% trails the district's 36.5% and the state's 44.9%, and reading of 38.4% is about 10 points behind the state's 48.6%. Science is mixed: 25.5% at all grades matches the state but beats the district's 17.3%, while the End-of-Course figure of 25.5% is below the state's 35.0%. The school has recovered from a 2021–22 low of 28th percentile and 1 star, but remains below the 51st–55th percentile, 3-star range of 2015–16 through 2017–18.

Comparisons with nearby schools should be read with care, since most are small alternative settings. Mounds View Alternative Learning Center and Metro Heights Academy serve high free/reduced-lunch populations and graduate 63.0% and 52.6% of students, well below this school's 88.5%. Secondary Lighthouse reports very high proficiency but enrolls only 34 students, making direct comparison questionable. Spring Lake Park Senior High has a moderate free/reduced lunch rate of 40.28% and improved its student-teacher ratio from 20.7 in 2022–23 to 19.4 in 2024–25. Results vary by student group: Special Education Students rank in the 80th–95th percentile across three years, far above the school's overall standing, while low-income students rank around the 37th percentile.
