Summary:
ZIP code 55065 is served by a single elementary school, Randolph Elementary, located at 29101 Dawson Ave in Randolph, Minnesota. It serves grades PK–6 with 445 students and belongs to the Randolph Public School District. With 17.75% of students receiving free or reduced lunch in 2024–2025 and a 13.5 student/teacher ratio, the school has a relatively moderate socioeconomic and staffing profile. Because it is the only elementary school in the ZIP code, there are no local schools to compare it against, so the most useful comparisons are against its own district and the state.
Randolph Elementary is rated 2 stars and ranked 528 of 869 schools, placing it at the 39th percentile — a relative bright spot, since its district is rated 1 star and sits at the 16th percentile. In 2025–2026 the school beat the district in all three tested subjects: Math at 42.2% versus 30.4%, Reading at 45.6% versus 31.2%, and Science at 14.8% versus 8.7%. Against the state, though, it trails in every subject — Math by 2.7 points, Reading by 3.0 points, and Science by 10.7 points.
Grade-level results show where the school shines and where it struggles. Third grade Math is a clear strength at 67.8%, about 9.9 points above the state. But Math proficiency falls sharply in later grades — 39.2% in 4th, 34.4% in 5th, and 28.8% in 6th, which is 10.7 points below the state — suggesting students lose ground as they move up. Reading is steadier, ranging from 43.3% to 47.1% and staying within about 8 points of the state at every grade. Science is the weakest area, with 5th grade at 14.8% against the state's 25.9%, though it improved from 8.2% the prior year, narrowing the gap. The school has held 2 stars for three straight years, peaking at the 46th percentile in 2024–2025 before settling at 39th. Overall, this is a solid school within its district that still has room to grow, especially in upper-grade Math and Science.
