Summary:
The Martin County West School District in Minnesota is home to a single high school, Martin County West Senior High, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has a predominantly White student population, with a high graduation rate and low dropout rate, but its academic performance, particularly in math and science, lags behind the state averages.
While Martin County West Senior High boasts a four-year graduation rate of 96.3% and a low dropout rate of 1.8%, its academic proficiency scores on the MCA-III assessments are generally lower than the state averages. In 2023-2024, only 20.69% of 11th-grade students and 20.69% of all students were proficient or better in MCA-III Math, compared to the state average of 34.99% for 11th-grade and 45.47% for all grades. Similarly, the school's science proficiency rate of 26.19% was significantly lower than the state average of 43.47%.
The school's demographic composition is predominantly White (91.52%), with smaller percentages of minority students. Additionally, nearly half (47.77%) of the students at Martin County West Senior High receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a population with lower socioeconomic status. These factors may contribute to the school's academic performance challenges and suggest a need for targeted interventions and support to address the diverse needs of the student body.
