Summary:
The 55021 zip code area of Faribault, Minnesota is home to 15 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 5 high schools, and 4 alternative schools. This diverse educational landscape serves a student population with a significant minority representation and high rates of free/reduced lunch eligibility, presenting both challenges and opportunities for the local Faribault Public School District.
Among the standout schools in the area, Lincoln Elementary shines with the highest proficiency rates in math, reading, and science, as well as the lowest student-teacher ratio in the elementary school group. In contrast, the Discovery Public School - Faribault and Faribault Area Learning Center struggle with very low test scores and graduation rates, highlighting the stark disparities in academic performance across the schools in this area.
The data also reveals the unique challenges faced by alternative and virtual schools, such as the Falcons Online Academy-High School and the Faribault Area Learning Center, which tend to have lower test scores, graduation rates, and higher dropout rates compared to the traditional public schools. This suggests the need for targeted interventions and support to address the educational disparities and ensure all students in the Faribault Public School District have access to high-quality education.
