Highland Elementary

Summary:

Highland Elementary is a public elementary school located in Columbia Heights, Minnesota, serving 512 students from pre-kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Columbia Heights Public School District, which is ranked 427 out of 463 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Highland Elementary has a diverse student population, with significant representation of African American (34.38%) and Hispanic (34.77%) students, in contrast to nearby schools that tend to have a higher percentage of White students. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments (MCA-III), is significantly lower than the state and district averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 16.67% of Highland Elementary students were proficient or better in MCA-III Math, compared to 45.47% statewide and 13.46% for the Columbia Heights Public School District. The school's performance also varies across different student subgroups, with African American and Hispanic students performing better than the state averages for their respective subgroups, but still lagging behind their White and Asian peers within the school.

Highland Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Minnesota elementary schools, with a ranking between 674 and 823 out of 826 to 881 schools over the past 10 school years. This suggests that the school has struggled to improve its academic performance over an extended period. When compared to nearby schools, such as Valley View Elementary and North Park School for Innovation, Highland Elementary generally performs worse academically, with lower proficiency rates in MCA-III Math, Reading, and Science. However, these nearby schools also struggle with low academic performance, indicating that the challenges faced by Highland Elementary may be systemic within the Columbia Heights Public School District.

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.
