Summary:
The Mahnomen Public School District in Minnesota operates three schools: Mahnomen Elementary School, Mahnomen Secondary School, and Mahnomen Area Learning Center. These schools serve a predominantly Native American student population, with the percentage ranging from 64.01% to 90.91% across the district.
Academically, the schools in the Mahnomen Public School District face significant challenges. All three schools perform well below state averages on MCA-III tests in math, reading, and science, with the elementary and area learning center schools performing the worst. The secondary school and area learning center also have alarmingly low graduation rates (62.5% and 7.6%, respectively) and high dropout rates (17.5% and 30.7%, respectively).
Additionally, the schools in the district serve a student population with high levels of economic disadvantage, as evidenced by the extremely high free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 73.38% to 83.48%. The area learning center also stands out with an exceptionally high student-teacher ratio of 66:1, which may contribute to the challenges the district faces in providing quality education and support for its students.
