Summary:
The Hiawatha Academies district in Minnesota has one elementary school, Hiawatha Leadership Acdy-Northrop, which serves grades K-4 and has an enrollment of 409 students.
Hiawatha Leadership Acdy-Northrop is a struggling school that is significantly underperforming academically compared to state averages. The school's proficiency rates on state assessments are alarmingly low, with less than 15% of students meeting or exceeding standards in Math and less than 5% in Reading. This suggests that the school is failing to provide a high-quality education to its predominantly Hispanic (85.33%) student population, many of whom come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, with 93.64% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
The school's consistently low ranking, placing it in the bottom 5% of Minnesota elementary schools, further highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique challenges faced by the students at Hiawatha Leadership Acdy-Northrop. Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.9 to 1, the school's academic performance remains a significant concern, indicating that additional resources and strategies may be required to improve educational outcomes for this underserved community.
