Jackson County Central School District


Summary:

The Jackson County Central School District in Minnesota consists of 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from kindergarten through 12th grade. The district's schools demonstrate a mix of academic performance, with Riverside Elementary and Pleasantview Elementary standing out as the top performers in the district.

Riverside Elementary consistently ranks in the top half of Minnesota elementary schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperforms the district and state averages in both math and reading proficiency, and maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.1, which may contribute to its academic success. Pleasantview Elementary also performs well, particularly in science, with 59.21% of students proficient or better in 5th grade science, significantly higher than the district and state averages.

In contrast, Jackson County Central Senior High has lower proficiency rates compared to the district and state, particularly in math, and has seen a decline in its statewide ranking. The district as a whole faces challenges, such as a predominantly white student population and a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which may influence the schools' academic performance and resource allocation. Further analysis and investigation into the underlying factors could help the district identify areas for improvement and better support student success.
