Hibbing High

Summary:

Hibbing High is a public high school located in Hibbing, Minnesota, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 993 students. The school's performance has been inconsistent, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between the top 45 and bottom 200 schools in Minnesota over the past several years.

While Hibbing High has maintained a relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 89.6% to 94.1% in recent years, the school's dropout rate has also been higher than the state average, fluctuating between 2.9% and 6.6%. When compared to nearby schools, such as Mesabi Area Learning Center, which has significantly lower graduation rates and higher dropout rates, it suggests that the Hibbing Public School District may need to focus on supporting alternative learning programs to improve outcomes for students who struggle in a traditional high school setting.

Academically, Hibbing High's performance, as measured by MCA-III test scores, is generally below the state average in math, reading, and science, with particularly low proficiency rates in math. This underperformance compared to the state and district averages indicates that the school may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to improve student learning in core academic areas. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, which may contribute to its academic challenges, as research has shown that students from low-income families often face additional barriers to educational success.

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.
