Summary

Two Harbors Secondary is a public high school serving grades 6-12 with 582 students in Two Harbors, Minnesota, which is part of the Lake Superior Public School District. The school has seen fluctuations in its academic performance, with proficiency rates on state assessments generally below the state and district averages across most grade levels and subjects.

While Two Harbors Secondary has had graduation rates in line with or slightly below state and district averages, its dropout rate has been slightly higher. The school's student population is predominantly white, and its performance on assessments varies significantly across different student subgroups, with particularly low rankings for special education and white students. The school's relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch and slightly higher student-teacher ratio compared to the state average suggest it may face resource challenges in supporting its student population.

Despite these challenges, the school has shown some strengths, such as the strong performance of female students and high rankings for special education students in certain years. These areas of strength could potentially be leveraged to drive overall academic improvement at the school.
