Ada-Borup-West Secondary

Summary:

Ada-Borup-West Secondary is a public high school serving grades 6-12 in Ada, Minnesota, with 343 students and a predominantly White student population. This school consistently performs above the state average in academic proficiency, ranking 71st out of 480 Minnesota high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ada-Borup-West Secondary's academic strengths include exceptional performance for its Special Education students, ranking 15th out of 221 Minnesota high schools in this category, as well as strong results for its Male and White students. The school also boasts an impressive 96.0% four-year graduation rate and a 0.0% dropout rate. However, the school's growing population of students from lower-income households, as indicated by the increase in free and reduced-price lunch recipients, suggests a need to address potential performance gaps between student subgroups.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Ulen-Hitterdal Secondary and Fertile-Beltrami Secondary, Ada-Borup-West Secondary generally outperforms these schools in academic proficiency, particularly in Math and Reading. However, Norman County East Secondary, located just 12.6 miles away, has shown stronger performance in certain areas, such as 10th grade Reading and End of Course Science. As the school continues to serve a growing diverse student population, it may benefit from further analysis and strategies to ensure all students receive the support they need to succeed.

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.
