Summary:
ZIP code 55311 in Maple Grove, Minnesota contains four elementary schools — three in the Osseo Public School District serving PK–5, plus one standalone charter, Minnesota Excellence in Learning Ac, serving PK–6 — with a combined enrollment of 2,509 students, about 90.8% of them in the Osseo schools.
The three Osseo schools are a strong cluster: Weaver Lake Science Math & Technical School ranks 114th of 869 schools (87th percentile, 4 stars) and leads the ZIP in all-grade Reading (65.1%) and Science (42.3%, versus 25.5% statewide). Basswood Elementary has the largest enrollment (848) and the highest Math proficiency (70.3%), including 80.4% in 4th grade Math, and ranks 166th of 869 (81st percentile, 4 stars). Rush Creek Elementary ranks 216th of 869 (75th percentile, 4 stars) — still solid, but down from 53rd of 881 and the 94th percentile in 2023–2024. All three outperform their district (38th percentile, 2 stars) and state averages.
Minnesota Excellence in Learning Ac is the clear contrast: rank 767 of 869 (12th percentile, 1 star), Math 18.5%, Reading 22.8%, and Science 21.4% — up sharply from 5% in 2024–2025 but still below state. It has the highest free/reduced lunch rate (73.16%), smallest enrollment (231), and smallest classes (student-teacher ratio 11.2), showing class size alone does not explain outcomes. Notably, Science is a relative weak spot for Basswood (27.2%) and Rush Creek (29.6%), while Weaver Lake is the exception.
