Elementary Schools in Minnetonka Public School District

Summary:

The Minnetonka Public School District in Minnesota is home to 7 exceptional elementary schools, serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools consistently rank among the top performers in the state, with several schools placing in the top 20 and even the top 10 elementary schools in Minnesota.

The standout schools in the district include Scenic Heights Elementary, which ranks 3rd out of 858 schools in 2021-2022 and 5th out of 881 schools in 2023-2024, boasting over 80% proficiency in math, reading, and science. Groveland Elementary and Excelsior Elementary also stand out, ranking 10th and 19th, respectively, out of 881 Minnesota elementary schools in 2023-2024, with similarly impressive test scores.

The Minnetonka Public School District as a whole is an exceptional performer, with all of its elementary schools ranking in the top 100 in Minnesota. This suggests a district-wide commitment to academic excellence and strong educational resources. However, the racial diversity of the student populations varies significantly across the schools, and the relatively low free/reduced lunch rates indicate that the district serves a predominantly affluent student population, which likely contributes to the strong academic performance.
