Summary:
ZIP code 55792 is home to two elementary schools — Parkview Elementary and North Star Elementary — which together serve the full PK–6 grade span in Rock Ridge Public Schools, enrolling 725 students in all.
The two schools split the grades rather than compete with each other. Parkview Elementary covers PK–2 with 336 students, while North Star Elementary covers grades 3–6 with 389 students, making it the slightly larger of the two. Because the state MCA tests apply to the upper grades, Parkview has no test scores listed here — that is not a sign of weak performance, simply a reflection of the grade levels it serves. What the data does show is that Parkview serves the youngest learners with a higher free/reduced lunch rate (52.38% vs. 42.16%) and a higher student-teacher ratio (17.4 vs. 14.7) than North Star.
North Star Elementary is the academic standout, beating both district and state averages in all three tested subjects in 2025–2026: math at 47.4%, reading at 60.3%, and science at 35.4%. Reading and science are the brightest spots, at 11.7 and 9.9 percentage points above the state. The school also improved year over year, gaining 7.61 points in math, and its rank rose to 280 of 869 schools (68th percentile) from 417 of 872 the year before. One area to watch is upper-grade math, which slips from 64.6% in 3rd grade to 31.0% in 6th grade — below the state by 8.5 points by 6th grade. Overall, the district ranks 129 of 458 at the 72nd percentile with 4 stars.
