Glenville-Emmons Secondary

Summary:

Glenville-Emmons Secondary is a small public high school serving grades 7-12 in the town of Glenville, Minnesota, with a student population of just 98 students. However, the school's performance has been consistently below average, ranking in the bottom half of Minnesota high schools and struggling with lower graduation rates and higher dropout rates compared to nearby schools.

Glenville-Emmons Secondary has a predominantly white student population, with 89.8% of students identifying as white, which is significantly higher than the more diverse student populations at nearby schools like Alden-Conger Secondary and Lyle High School. The school's academic performance on MCA-III tests is also below the state average, with proficiency rates ranging from just 7.69% to 53.85% across different subjects and grade levels. Additionally, the school's four-year graduation rate has ranged from 82.3% to 100% over the past five years, which is generally lower than the nearby schools.

One concerning trend is the increasing percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Glenville-Emmons Secondary, which has grown from 18.92% in 2020-2021 to 33.67% in 2022-2023, indicating a growing population of economically disadvantaged students. This could be a contributing factor to the school's lower academic performance and higher dropout rates. Overall, Glenville-Emmons Secondary appears to be a struggling school that could benefit from a closer examination of the factors contributing to its challenges, in order to better serve the Glenville community.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
