Schools in Zip Code 56464

ZIP code 56464 covers Menahga, Minnesota, where a single district — Menahga Public School District — serves about 987 students across just two schools: Menahga Elementary (PK–6, 537 students) and Menahga High School (7–12, 450 students). Both sit at the same address, 216 Aspen Ave SE, so families here have a single PK–12 campus community with no middle school, alternative, or charter options.

The two schools stand out in different areas. Menahga Elementary is the stronger academic performer relative to the state in math, with 46.1% of students proficient against the state's 44.9% — the only school-level subject score in the data that beats the state average, and it has held that position two years running. Menahga High School is the standout on completion: a 92.3% graduation rate versus the state's 84.9%, and a 1.5% dropout rate versus 4.2% statewide. But the high school trails the state in every tested subject and every tested grade level, and its math proficiency (26.3%) sits nearly 19 points below the elementary's.

For parents, the biggest shared concern is science, where both schools sit near 14–15% proficiency against roughly 25.5% statewide. Two transition points stand out: 5th grade at the elementary, below state in all three subjects, and 8th grade at the high school, where math (20.3%) and science (5.3%) are the weakest results in the file. Rankings are modest — both schools fall near the 40th–46th percentile of Minnesota schools — and more than half of elementary and nearly half of high school students qualify for free/reduced lunch. Overall, students here finish at better rates than the state average while testing below it in most subjects.
