Summary:
The 56036 zip code area is home to 3 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. While the schools show some areas of strength, they generally underperform the state averages in academic metrics like math and reading proficiency.
Glenville-Emmons Secondary, the high school, has shown notable improvement, climbing from 388th out of 476 Minnesota high schools in 2022-2023 to 141st out of 450 in 2024-2025. Its 84.2% four-year graduation rate and 4.4% dropout rate are also positive indicators. In contrast, Glenville Emmons Elementary has lower overall academic performance, with math and reading proficiency rates below the state averages, despite some bright spots like 3rd-grade math proficiency exceeding the state average.
The schools in this area face challenges related to their student populations, with relatively high free/reduced lunch rates of 43.09% at the elementary school and 37.62% at the high school, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. This may contribute to the academic performance gaps observed. Additionally, the lack of data for Success West, the alternative school, makes it difficult to fully evaluate the educational landscape in the 56036 zip code area.
