Summary

Woodcrest Elementary Spanish Immersion is a PK–4 school in Fridley, MN serving 558 students as part of Spring Lake Park Public Schools, making it one of the larger elementary schools in its area. Woodcrest is ranked 658th of 869 Minnesota elementary schools for 2025–2026 (24th percentile, 1 star), down from 421st of 845 (50th percentile, 3 stars) in 2022–2023 — a steady four-year decline that is the most important trend in the data. The district overall ranks 264th of 458 in the state (42nd percentile, 2 stars).

In 2025–2026, 41.1% of Woodcrest students were proficient in math and 33.8% in reading. Math is above the district's 36.5% but below the state's 44.9%; reading is below both the district (39.0%) and the state (48.6%), and third-grade reading sits at 27.9%, 18.9 points below the state. Compared with nearby schools, Woodcrest's scores are higher than Park Terrace Elementary (23.2 math, 27.0 reading), North Park School for Innovation (16.6, 26.9), Adams Elementary (32.4, 31.5), Spero Academy Brooklyn Park (14.7, 27.5) and Hayes Elementary (31.3, 29.1), but lower than Sunnyside Elementary (50.0, 39.5) and Monroe Elementary School - MSE (64.6, 54.1). Elementary Lighthouse posts the top scores in the group but is a very small, 29-student program and not directly comparable.

Woodcrest serves a relatively lower-poverty population — about 40% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, less than most neighbors — yet its student-teacher ratio of 15.6 is the highest in the comparison group. Subgroup effectiveness rankings are notably low for English language learners (8th percentile), low-income students (12th percentile, consistently bottom 15% for three years), special education students (18th percentile) and female students (14th percentile), while male students rank near the median (48th percentile). The most striking local benchmark is Monroe Elementary School - MSE, with similar enrollment (553) and staffing (14.8) and a higher poverty rate (46.84%) yet far stronger results — suggesting Woodcrest's outcomes are not fully explained by demographics or class size alone. Families should also weigh the Spanish immersion setting, where the timing of English literacy instruction can shape reading scores.

I am a parent with a child at this school and I would highly suggest that you find a different school for your child if you're searching. The principal is rude, condescending, and racist! The teachers are very young and lack experience and skills in communication with parents. Stay away from this school Close Quote
