Summary:

Deer River Secondary is a public high school serving grades 6-12 in Deer River, Minnesota, with a total enrollment of 443 students. The school is part of the Deer River Public School District, which has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Deer River Secondary faces several key challenges. The school has a significantly higher percentage of Native American students (32.73%) compared to the state average, and its graduation and dropout rates have fluctuated, with the dropout rate reaching 16.6% in the 2021-2022 school year, much higher than the state average. Academically, the school's test scores on the MCA-III assessments are consistently lower than the state and district averages across all subject areas and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 15% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in Math, compared to the state average of 34.99%. Additionally, Deer River Secondary has a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 57.64% to 66.37% over the past few years, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges.

When compared to nearby schools, Deer River Secondary appears to be underperforming. For instance, Greenway Senior High, located about 17 miles away, has significantly higher test scores, graduation rates, and overall performance compared to Deer River Secondary. The school's declining statewide ranking, from a high of 85 out of 489 Minnesota high schools in 2016-2017 to a low of 308 out of 480 in the 2023-2024 school year, suggests that Deer River Secondary is struggling to keep up with the performance of other schools in the state.

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.
