Summary:
The 56036 zip code in Minnesota is home to 3 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school, serving a predominantly white student population with a significant proportion of economically disadvantaged students.

The small Success West alternative school serves a unique population with a very high rate of free/reduced lunch recipients.
Academically, the schools in the 56036 zip code show significant variability in performance, with the elementary school generally outperforming the high school in math and reading proficiency, but the high school students excelling in 10th-grade reading. The schools face challenges, with the elementary school ranking in the bottom 25% of Minnesota elementary schools and the high school ranking in the bottom 30-40% of Minnesota high schools. However, the nuanced performance data suggests the schools may be performing better than their overall rankings indicate.
The high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients, ranging from 33.67% to 66.67%, suggest the schools serve a population with significant economic challenges, which may impact their academic performance. The small size of the Success West alternative school, with only 9 students, may present unique challenges and opportunities. Overall, the schools in the 56036 zip code face a mix of strengths and challenges, and further investigation and targeted interventions may be necessary to address these issues and improve outcomes for the students.
