Summary:
ZIP code 55810 — Proctor, Minnesota — is served by a single public high school: Proctor Senior High, a grades 9–12 campus at 131 9th Ave with 540 students, and it is part of the Proctor Public School District. Because there is only one high school here, there is no local school-to-school comparison to make; the useful comparisons are year over year and against the district and the state. It is a moderately resourced school: 33.15% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, and the student–teacher ratio is 15.7 to 1, which works out to roughly 34 teachers.
The clearest strengths are science and finishing rates. In science, Proctor Senior High outperformed both its district and the state in two straight years: 33.7% proficient in 2025-26 against a state figure of 25.5% (+8.2 points), after 37.4% versus 26.15% (+11.25 points) the year before. Graduation sits at 91.8% versus the state's 84.9%, and the dropout rate is 2.4% versus 4.2%. On 11th-grade math, the school posts 39.5% proficient against the state's 35.3% (+4.2 points).
The main concern is reading, which dropped from 58.47% proficient in 2024-25 — ahead of both district and state — to 38.3% in 2025-26, now 13.9 points behind the district and 10.3 behind the state. Math also slipped from 42.35% to 39.5%, and the school's rank fell from the 79th percentile (96 of 450, 4 stars) to the 59th percentile (192 of 473, 3 stars). Be aware that "All Grades" figures compare a high-school-only population with a K–12 state average; like-for-like, 10th-grade reading is 38.3% versus the state's 42.5% (−4.2) and end-of-course science is 33.7% versus 35.0% (−1.3). Notably, the district's own 4-star rating appears driven by its elementary and middle schools, since the high school's tested-grade scores match the district's exactly.
