Swanville Secondary

Summary:

Swanville Secondary is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in the small town of Swanville, Minnesota, with a student population of 153. While the school is part of the Mid-State Education District, which is ranked 325 out of 463 districts in the state, Swanville Secondary exhibits some unique characteristics compared to its neighboring schools.

One notable difference is the school's racial makeup, with a significantly higher percentage of white students (94.77%) compared to the state average and nearby schools like Long Prairie-Grey Eagle Secondary (50.42% white) and Browerville Secondary (89.17% white). Additionally, Swanville Secondary has seen fluctuations in its 4-year graduation rate, ranging from 78.2% to 94.7% over the past 5 years, which is generally higher than the state average and some nearby schools like Browerville Secondary (83.3%) and Little Falls Continuing Education (35.2%).

Academically, Swanville Secondary performs above the state average in some subject areas, such as 11th grade math and 10th grade reading, but struggles in others like 7th grade math and overall science proficiency. The school's statewide ranking has also fluctuated significantly, from as high as 51 out of 472 Minnesota high schools in 2021-2022 to as low as 350 out of 476 in 2022-2023, which is not seen at many of the nearby schools. These unique characteristics suggest that Swanville Secondary may have both strengths and areas for improvement that warrant further investigation and potential efforts to address them.

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.
