Henry High

Summary:

Henry High is a public high school located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 858 students. The school is part of the Minneapolis Public School District, which is ranked 322 out of 463 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Henry High has a diverse student population, with a significant representation of African American (47.2%), Asian (22.96%), and Hispanic (14.92%) students. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by MCA-III test scores, is significantly lower than the district and state averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 8.33% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in Math, compared to 31.82% for the district and 34.99% for the state. Additionally, Henry High has seen fluctuations in its four-year graduation rate, ranging from 70.9% in 2017-2018 to 85.7% in 2021-2022, and a higher dropout rate compared to the state average.

The nearby schools, such as Plymouth Youth Center and Minneapolis Academy & Career Center, have even lower academic performance and graduation rates compared to Henry High. This suggests that the challenges faced by Henry High may be more widespread in the local area, and that socioeconomic factors may play a significant role in the academic performance and outcomes of these schools, as indicated by the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Henry High.

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.
