Summary:
The 55906 zip code area is home to a single middle school, Kellogg Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. While this school is the only option for middle schoolers in this specific geographic region, its academic performance has been consistently below the district and state averages on standardized assessments.
Kellogg Middle School's proficiency rates in Math, Reading, and Science lag behind the Rochester Public School District and the state of Minnesota. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's Math proficiency ranged from 33.47% to 43.57%, compared to the district's 30.98% to 35.91% and the state's 40.1% to 41.95%. Similarly, the school's Reading proficiency rates were between 43.85% and 51.68%, while the district and state averages were higher.
Despite these academic challenges, Kellogg Middle School has a student-teacher ratio of 17.8, which is within a reasonable range. However, the school's free and reduced-price lunch rate of 43.02% suggests a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, which may be a contributing factor to the school's underperformance. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 212 out of 520 Minnesota middle schools in 2021-2022 to 241 out of 545 in 2023-2024, indicating inconsistent performance or changes in the broader educational landscape.
