The 55446 zip code area is home to three high schools: Wayzata High, The Alternative Program (TAP), and Wayzata Transition School, all part of the Wayzata Public School District. While Wayzata High stands out as a top-performing school in the state, the other two schools lag behind in academic achievement and rankings.

Wayzata High is the clear standout, consistently ranking among the top 5-6 high schools in Minnesota and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its students demonstrate exceptional academic performance, with over 80% proficient or better in math and reading, significantly higher than the state averages.

This socioeconomic divide is further reflected in the student-teacher ratios, with Wayzata High at 20.2 and the alternative schools at 42.6 and 6, respectively.
