Summary:
The Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa School District in Minnesota operates two schools: Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa Secondary School and Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa Elementary School. While the elementary school is a strong performer, the secondary school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years, suggesting opportunities for improvement.
Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa Elementary School appears to be the stronger performing school in the district, with a higher statewide ranking and better academic outcomes across key metrics like math, reading, and science proficiency. In contrast, Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa Secondary School has struggled, particularly in mathematics, and its statewide ranking has dropped from 150 out of 472 high schools in 2021-2022 to 264 out of 480 in 2023-2024.
Both schools serve a predominantly white student population, with the secondary school being 88.76% white and the elementary school being 90.23% white. The district also faces economic challenges, with the elementary school having a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (49.84%) compared to the secondary school (36.69%). Despite these challenges, the secondary school maintains a very high 96.3% four-year graduation rate and a 0% dropout rate, suggesting the district is successful in supporting students to complete their high school education.
