Summary:
The 55336 zip code in Minnesota is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, 2 high schools (one of which is an alternative learning center), all part of the Glencoe-Silver Lake School District. While the district is ranked 183 out of 463 in the state, the schools in this area show a mix of performance, with some standout schools and areas for improvement.
Glencoe-Silver Lake Senior High is the largest school with 496 students and a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 95.1%. However, its academic performance, as measured by MCA-III test scores, is below the state average in math, reading, and science, and its statewide ranking has dropped in recent years. In contrast, the SWWC Alternative Learning Center serves a highly disadvantaged student population, with 73.91% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch and a more diverse racial makeup compared to the other schools.
Across the schools, there are disparities in test scores, free/reduced lunch rates, and student-teacher ratios, suggesting potential equity concerns within the district. The Region 6 and 8-SW/Wc Service Coop district, which includes the Glencoe-Silver Lake School District, has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating room for improvement in providing equitable educational opportunities for all students in the 55336 zip code.
