Summary:
ZIP code 55109 contains six high school listings serving grades 6 through 12, ranging from one large comprehensive high school to several small alternative, online, and specialized programs, with most students enrolled in the North St. Paul-Maplewood Oakdale district.
Enrollment here is highly concentrated. North Senior High serves 1,649 of the 1,897 students in this set — about 87% — with the other five schools combined enrolling roughly 248 students. Its profile is mixed. Graduation is a strong 87.8%, above the district's 86.3% and the state's 84.9%, and its 2.3% dropout rate is below both. But math proficiency is a clear concern: only 10.8% of all grades tested proficient in 2025–26, versus 29.5% in the district and 44.9% statewide, down from 20.97% the prior year. Reading is 30.6%, also below district and state, while science at 20.8% beats the district's 16.8% but trails the state's 25.5%. Its student-teacher ratio of 22.9 is far higher than the smaller programs.
Among the smaller schools, 622 Online High School reports the lowest graduation rate, 63.6%, and the highest dropout rate at 12.1%, more than triple the district figure, with test scores suppressed. 622 Alternative Middle/High School has the highest free/reduced-lunch share at 80%, an exact 0% math proficiency rate, 71.7% graduation, and 0.0% dropout, though with only 30 students these numbers deserve caution. Lionsgate Academy AIM is the only school in the higher-rated Lionsgate Academy district (3 stars, 53rd percentile, versus 1 star, 26th percentile), has the lowest FRL at 39.22% and a ratio of 5.1, but serves grade 12 only with no outcome data. The Next Step (84 students, grades 11–12) and Therapeutic Education Collective (T) (9 students) report little or no completion or test data; suppressed figures are unknown, not zero.
