Summary:
ZIP code 56345 covers nine schools serving students from elementary through high school, split across two districts. Little Falls Community Schools enrolls 2,305 of the area's 2,347 students — about 98.2% — while Mid-State Education District operates four very small specialized programs enrolling 42 students combined. The area includes three elementary, two middle, three high schools, and one alternative school. Because the Mid-State programs are so small, area-wide averages are essentially Little Falls Community Schools averages.
Little Falls Senior High is the clearest standout: 747 students, a 90.8% graduation rate above both district (79.9%) and state (84.9%), a 4.8% dropout rate, science proficiency of 39.9% versus the state's 25.5%, and a jump to the 69th percentile (3 stars) from the 34th the prior year. Lindbergh Elementary is the math standout, with all-grades math at 53.2% — the only reported school above the state's 44.9% — though its science is 18.2%. Little Falls Continuing Education faces the largest gaps: a 41.5% graduation rate, an 11.3% dropout rate, math at 3.2%, and the highest student–teacher ratio at 25.7.
Two patterns stand out. First, reading is broadly below the state's 48.6% across every reported school, and science splits oddly: strong at the high school but low at Community Middle (16%) and Lindbergh (18.2%). Second, test data for WIN-High School, WIN-Middle School, SUN Program, and WIN-Elementary School is largely suppressed — a dash means the state withheld the value to protect privacy, not that performance was zero or poor. Lincoln Elementary serves PK–2 and has no test-score rows at all.
