Summary:
ZIP code 55410 in southwest Minneapolis contains four elementary schools serving about 1,236 students across grade spans from PK through 8 — Armatage Elementary (PK–5), Lake Harriet Lower Elementary (K–2), Lake Harriet Upper Elementary (3–5), and Agamim Classical Academy (K–8). Three are part of Minneapolis Public School District; Agamim is its own single-school district, so its district figures are not an independent comparison.
The standout is Lake Harriet Upper Elementary, ranked 3rd of 869 schools (100th percentile, 5 stars) in 2025-2026 and in the top 12 each of the prior two years. Its all-grade proficiency is 86.2% in math, 85.3% in reading, and 60.7% in science, versus state rates of 44.9%, 48.6%, and 25.5%. Armatage Elementary is close behind and climbing: 89th (2023-2024) to 31st (2024-2025) to 16th of 869 (98th percentile, 5 stars), with math at 81.0%, reading at 77.5%, and science at 54.4%. Notably, both earn 5 stars while their district ranks 310 of 458 (32nd percentile, 2 stars).
Agamim Classical Academy offers the opposite profile: the highest free/reduced-lunch rate (45.49%) and the lowest student-teacher ratio (10.3), but a declining trend from the 72nd percentile (2023-2024) to 56th to 42nd, with math at 36.0% (below the state's 44.9%), reading at 50.0%, and science at 24.1% — near the state. Lake Harriet Lower Elementary has no test scores or rank history because it serves K–2, so that absence is not a sign of weakness; it has the lowest free/reduced-lunch rate (12.62%). Together the two Lake Harriet campuses enroll 593 students.
