Summary:
Partnership Academy Inc. is the sole elementary school located in the Partnership Academy Inc. district in Richfield, Minnesota, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 523 students. Unfortunately, this school does not appear to be a standout performer, consistently ranking in the bottom 10-15% of Minnesota elementary schools over the past three years and earning a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.
The student population at Partnership Academy Inc. is predominantly Hispanic (91.2%), and a high percentage (84.51%) of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. The school's proficiency rates on the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments (MCA-III) are significantly lower than the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with gaps ranging from 30 to 40 percentage points in some cases. This suggests that the school is struggling to provide a high-quality education and prepare its students for academic success.
Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.6 to 1, which is lower than the state average, this advantage does not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. Addressing the persistent achievement gaps and improving student outcomes should be a top priority for Partnership Academy Inc. and its district.
