Summary:
The 55947 zip code in Minnesota is home to a single middle school, La Crescent-Hokah Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. While the school has a relatively small student population of 292 and a lower-than-average student-teacher ratio, its academic performance has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Minnesota middle schools over the past three years.
La Crescent-Hokah Middle School's proficiency rates on MCA-III assessments are below the state average in both math and reading across all grade levels. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's math proficiency rate was 28.76%, compared to the state average of 45.21%, and its reading proficiency rate was 48.37%, compared to the state average of 49.59%. However, the school's science proficiency rate of 44.76% in 2023-2024 was higher than the state average of 39.56%, suggesting a potential area of strength.
Despite the school's relatively low free and reduced-price lunch rate of 24.32% in 2023-2024, which is lower than the state average, La Crescent-Hokah Middle School's overall academic performance remains a concern. The school's consistent underperformance compared to the state average, particularly in math and reading, indicates a need for improvement in these core subject areas. Further investigation into the school's specific challenges and strategies for improvement would be necessary to develop a more comprehensive understanding of its performance and potential.
