Some standout schools in Minot include Bell Elementary School, which ranks 3rd out of 202 North Dakota elementary schools and has a high percentage of white students and a low student-teacher ratio.

While some schools excel, others, such as Sunnyside Elementary School and Roosevelt Elementary School, are among the lowest-performing in the state. This disparity suggests a potential correlation between the socioeconomic status of the student population and academic performance, as schools with higher free/reduced lunch rates tend to have lower test scores and graduation rates.
