Summary:

ZIP code 55024 is served by a single high school: Farmington High School, part of the Farmington Public School District. It enrolls 2,153 students in grades 9–12, with a 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch rate of 20.53% and a student-teacher ratio of 19.8, which works out to roughly 109 teachers. Because it is the only high school in this ZIP code, there is no local peer school to compare against — so the most useful comparisons are to its own district and to the state.

The standout story is upward momentum. Over three years, the school climbed from 340th of 480 schools (29th percentile, 1 star) in 2023–2024 to 238th of 450 (47th percentile, 2 stars) in 2024–2025, and then to 145th of 473 (69th percentile, 3 stars) in 2025–2026 — a 195-position gain and a 40-point percentile jump. It also outranks its own district, which sits at 273rd of 458, the 40th percentile, with 2 stars. For families, this suggests a school on a clear improving trajectory rather than one resting on past results.

Outcomes and test scores are mixed but generally encouraging. The 2024–2025 graduation rate is 91.7%, above the state's 84.9% and matching the district, while the 3.4% dropout rate is below the state's 4.2%. On 2025–2026 exams, 11th-grade math came in at 40% versus the state's 35.3%, and End of Course science at 43.6% versus 35% statewide — a jump of 18.74 points year over year. Reading is the soft spot: 10th-grade reading is 41% against the state's 42.5%, and reading declined 3.13 points from the prior year. Note that the reading exam label changed between years, so that comparison deserves caution. Overall, the picture is a large, improving school with strong graduation and science results and reading as the area to watch.
