Hoover Elementary BioMed Sci Egng is strong in math (55.5%), and Hamilton Elementary leads in reading (52.2%, including 72.9% in 5th grade reading). Across the zip code, though, only 2 of 12 reporting schools exceeded the state average in math, 2 of 12 in reading, and 4 of 10 in science.

Coon Rapids High School shows a paradox: a 90.2% graduation rate and 1.8% dropout rate, both better than district and state, alongside proficiency below district and state in all three subjects. Science is the broadest weakness, declining in many schools year over year. Free/reduced-lunch rates range from 47.44% to 99.17%, and high poverty does not automatically mean low performance — Mississippi Elementary combines a 57.18% FRL rate with the zip code's top math and science results. Values shown as — are suppressed by the state and remain unknown, not zero, which matters most in tiny schools such as Innovation Sci & Technical Middle (20 students) and Anoka-Hennepin Regn Night School (30).
