Osakis Secondary

Summary:

Osakis Secondary is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in the small town of Osakis, Minnesota, with a student population of 424. This school consistently performs well, outshining nearby schools in academic metrics and graduation rates, and is part of the Osakis Public School District, which is ranked 76 out of 463 districts in the state.

Osakis Secondary stands out for its high percentage of white students (91.27%) compared to nearby schools like Long Prairie-Grey Eagle Secondary, which has a more diverse student population. Academically, Osakis Secondary excels, with higher proficiency rates in Math, Reading, and Science than the state averages and surrounding schools. The school also maintains impressive graduation rates, ranging from 92.6% to 98.2% over the past five years, and low dropout rates, outperforming its neighbors.

While Osakis Secondary is a high-performing school, there are some areas that warrant attention. The school's ranking for male students and white students has declined in recent years, indicating a need to address the needs of these subgroups. Additionally, the school's support for students with special needs is an area of concern, with a 0-star rating in recent years. As the school's population becomes more socioeconomically diverse, with an increase in free and reduced-price lunch recipients, Osakis Secondary may need to adapt its strategies to better support these students.

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.
