Summary:
Zip code 55951 in Le Roy, MN has exactly one elementary school, Leroy Elementary, which serves grades PK–6 and enrolls 120 students as the only PK–6 building in the Leroy-Ostrander Public Schools district. The school has a 40.83% free/reduced lunch rate and a student–teacher ratio of 13.2, indicating a modestly higher-poverty population but relatively small classes. Because it is the district’s sole elementary program, its grade-level results match the district’s for those grades, while district all-grades figures also include grades 7–12 taught elsewhere.
Academically, 3rd grade Math is the standout bright spot at 50% proficiency, only about 8 points behind the state’s 57.9%. However, all-grades proficiency lags the state: Math 32.9% vs. 44.9%, Reading 25.0% vs. 48.6%, and Science 11.8% vs. 25.5%. The weakest area is 6th grade Reading at 15.4% against a state figure of 53.4%, a roughly 38-point gap. From 2024–25 to 2025–26, Math fell 6.0 points, Reading fell 13.9 points, and Science fell 1.5 points. The school’s state rank dropped to 722 of 869 (17th percentile, 1 star) in 2025–26, down from 601 of 872 (31st percentile, 2 stars) the prior year. Note that grade-level percentages come from very small groups—roughly 13–20 students per grade—so one or two students can shift results by several points.
For parents, the most reliable takeaway is that upper-elementary Reading, especially in 5th and 6th grades, is the clearest area needing attention, while 3rd grade Math remains competitive. The school’s small size and favorable student–teacher ratio are structural strengths, but the recent across-the-board decline relative to the state and the three-year low in state ranking are worth watching. Because year-to-year grade-level swings are noisy, treat individual percentages as directional signals rather than precise measurements.
