Best Public Schools in Kelliher, MN


Summary:

The city of Kelliher, Minnesota is home to two public schools: Kelliher Elementary and Kelliher Secondary, which serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. While both schools face challenges, such as high rates of economic disadvantage and relatively low statewide rankings, they also exhibit some notable differences in their student populations and academic performance.

Kelliher Elementary has a higher percentage of White students compared to Kelliher Secondary, which has a larger Native American student population. Academically, Kelliher Elementary generally outperforms Kelliher Secondary on standardized tests, with higher proficiency rates in both math and reading. However, Kelliher Secondary has a respectable four-year graduation rate of 82.6%, despite a relatively high dropout rate of 13%.

Both schools in the Kelliher Public School District face significant economic challenges, with over 70% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This high rate of economic disadvantage may contribute to the relatively low statewide rankings of the schools, suggesting that the quality of education in the Kelliher area is an area of concern that warrants further investigation and potential improvement efforts.
