Summary

Moreland Art/Health Science Magnet is a PK–4 magnet school serving 369 students in West St. Paul, Minnesota, part of the West St. Paul-Mendota Heights-Eagan district. The district ranks 134th of 458 in Minnesota (71st percentile, 4 stars), but Moreland's own 2025–2026 rank is 653rd of 869 (25th percentile, 1 star) — a low-performing outlier inside a generally strong district. About 64.5% of students qualified for free or reduced lunch in 2024–2025, down slightly from 66.49%, and its 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio of 10.8 is favorable compared with most nearby schools.

Academically, Moreland scores below its district and state. In 2025–2026, 40.7% of students were proficient in math and 35.2% in reading, versus 44.9% and 50.5% for the district and 44.9% and 48.6% statewide — about 4 points behind in math and roughly 13–15 in reading. It is the lowest performer among district peers: Somerset Elementary posted 77.7% math and 68.4% reading, Mendota Elementary 70.7% and 61.9%, and Garlough Environmental Magnet 50.6% and 45.3% despite a similar staffing ratio. Moreland outperforms Cherokee Heights Elementary School (16.8% math, 20.8% reading) and Riverview Spanish/English Dual Imme (33.6%, 29.2%), roughly matches Lincoln Center Elementary in math (40.3%) but not reading (41.2%), and trails Adams Magnet Elementary, Quantum STEAM Academy Elementary and Nova Classical Academy Lower School. Third-grade reading is the sharpest gap at 30.1%, about 18 points below the district and 17 below the state.

Results have been volatile rather than steadily improving, with statewide rank hovering in the bottom quartile (16th to 35th percentile since 2020–2021); 2024–2025 was a relative bright spot, when math edged above the district average. The school's strongest subgroup results are for Hispanic students and English Language Learners, while low-income and special education students rank lower than at many other schools statewide. Overall, the data point to early literacy and better support for low-income and special education students as the biggest opportunities.
