Summary:
The 55109 zip code area in North St. Paul, Minnesota is home to 14 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 5 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 4 high schools, and 3 alternative schools. These schools are part of the North St. Paul-Maplewood Oakdale school district, which is ranked 329 out of 446 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Among the schools in the area, a few stand out as performing better than others. Weaver Elementary has the highest proficiency rates in both math and reading, with 39.5% and 38.31% of students proficient or better, respectively, significantly higher than the district and state averages. Richardson Elementary is another strong performer, with 30.18% of students proficient in math and 27.64% in reading. At the middle school level, North Metro Flex Middle School stands out with 36.11% of students proficient in reading, compared to the district's 31% and the state's 49.59%.
However, the district as a whole struggles to meet state proficiency standards, particularly in math. For example, at North Senior High, only 20.97% of 11th graders were proficient or better in math, compared to the state average of 34.96%. The alternative schools in the district also have very low proficiency rates, with Harmony Learning Center scoring only 3.45% proficient in math and 6.25% in reading. Addressing these achievement gaps and providing targeted support for struggling students and schools should be a priority for the district.
