Summary:
ZIP code 55734 is served by a single public school: Laurentian Elementary, an elementary campus in Eveleth serving grades PK–6 with 488 students. It belongs to Rock Ridge Public Schools, a district ranked 129th of 458 in Minnesota. Because the ZIP has no middle, high, or alternative campuses, this is a one-school profile, and the most useful comparisons are grade-to-grade within the school and against the district and the state.
Laurentian outperforms both its district and Minnesota in every subject. In 2025-2026, 57.6% of students were proficient in math (district 45.8%, state 44.9%), 64.0% in reading (district 53.1%, state 48.6%), and 34.9% in science (district 27.6%, state 25.5%). The school ranks 170th of 869 ranked Minnesota elementary schools — the 80th percentile — and has earned 4 stars for three straight years, above its own district's 72nd-percentile standing. It also improved in all three subjects from 2024-2025 while the state declined in all three, and its 2025-2026 rank is its best of the past three years.
Grade-level results show reading is the flagship: 4th-grade reading reached 73.4%, 24.6 points above the state, with 5th grade (65.6%) and 6th grade (68.4%) also strong. Math is strong in 4th grade (71.9%) and 6th grade (49.4%) but drops sharply in 5th grade (46.8%) before recovering. The one soft spot is 3rd-grade reading at 47.7%, the only result below the district (51.7%), though still above the state. Science is solid against the state but level with the district in 5th grade. Notably, 42.21% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, so these results are not coming from an affluent student body.
