Summary:
The Floodwood Public School District has only one high school, Floodwood Secondary, which serves a relatively small student population of 74 students. The school's performance on various academic measures, such as MCA-III test scores, is generally below the district and state averages, and its SchoolDigger ranking has declined over the past few years, from 335 out of 428 Minnesota high schools in 2020-2021 to 401 out of 476 in 2022-2023.
Floodwood Secondary's proficiency rates on the MCA-III assessments are significantly lower than the district and state averages, particularly in Science and Math. For example, in 11th grade Math, the school's proficiency rate was 27.27%, compared to the district and state averages of 27.27% and 34.99%, respectively. The school also had a high dropout rate of 7.6% for the 2021-2022 school year, despite a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 92.3%.
The high percentage of students (51.35%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Floodwood Secondary suggests that the school serves a population with significant economic challenges, which may impact academic performance and other outcomes. To improve the school's performance, the district may need to implement targeted interventions and support systems to address these issues and provide a high-quality education for its students.
