Summary:

Zip code 55305 contains three high schools — Hopkins High School (grades 9–12), Transition Plus (grade 12 only), and School #527 (grades 6–12) — with a combined enrollment of 2,076 students across two districts, Hopkins Public School District and Intermediate School District 287. Hopkins High School anchors the area, enrolling 2,003 students, or about 96.5% of the total, while Transition Plus (38 students) and School #527 (35 students) each enroll under 2%. Because of that skew, average enrollment is 692 but median enrollment is only 38, so any ZIP-level figure largely describes Hopkins High School.

Hopkins High School is the largest and most measurable school here, and its outcomes are stronger than its district's standing suggests. The district is listed at 2 stars and 48th percentile, yet Hopkins High School earned 3 stars in each of the last three school years. Its graduation rate is 88.0%, above the district's 86.0% and the state's 84.9%, and its dropout rate of 2.0% is below the district's 2.3% and the state's 4.2%. Science is its strongest relative subject: 31.8% proficiency in 2025–2026 versus 24.6% for the district and 25.5% for the state. Math, at 40.5%, is above the district's 35.5% but below the state's 44.9%. Its student-teacher ratio is 19.5, with 36.35% of students on free/reduced lunch.

School #527 serves a higher-poverty population (60% free/reduced lunch) with the lowest student-teacher ratio, 7.6. In 2024–2025 it outperformed its district in all three subjects, with reading at 50% versus the district's 18.75% and the state's 49.59%, and science at 27.27% versus the district's 16.67% and the state's 26.15%. Its 2025–2026 school-level scores are suppressed by the state, so current-year performance is unknown rather than weak, and with only 35 students these percentages can swing widely. Transition Plus, serving grade 12 only, has no test-score, rank, graduation, or dropout records in this list; its notable figures are 52.63% free/reduced lunch and a 9.5 student-teacher ratio, less than half Hopkins High School's.
