Best Public Schools in Truman, MN


Summary:

The city of Truman, Minnesota is home to two public schools: Truman Elementary and Truman Secondary, both part of the Truman Public School District. While Truman Secondary stands out with an impressive 100% four-year graduation rate and 0% dropout rate, both schools face challenges with academic proficiency, particularly in math, and have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Truman Elementary has a relatively high percentage of white students at 86.08%, compared to the state average. However, the school's math and reading proficiency rates are below the state average across all grade levels. Truman Secondary also struggles with low math proficiency rates, ranging from 6.25% to 37.5% proficient, well below the state average. The school's reading proficiency rates are mixed, with 10th grade above the state average but 7th and 8th grade below.

Both Truman Elementary and Truman Secondary have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 67.72% and 63.64% respectively. This suggests the district may need to address socioeconomic factors that could be impacting student learning. While Truman Secondary's exceptional graduation and dropout rates are a bright spot, the overall academic performance of the schools in Truman indicates the district may need to focus on improving instructional quality and student outcomes.
