Summary:
The 55051 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (one of which is an alternative learning center). The standout school in this data set is Mora Elementary School, which consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state and boasts strong academic performance, particularly in math and reading.
In contrast, the other schools in the data set do not perform as strongly. Mora Secondary, the district's main high school, has seen its ranking drop from 79th in the state in 2021-2022 to 154th in 2023-2024, with test scores in math below the state and district averages. The two alternative learning centers, Mora Alternative Learning Center and Mora Middle Level Alternative Learning Center, have the lowest performance in the data set, with very low test scores, high poverty rates, and poor statewide rankings.
The data highlights the importance of analyzing school performance at a granular level, as the Mora Public School District as a whole has a 4-star rating, but the individual schools within the district vary greatly in their academic outcomes and other key metrics. Further analysis could explore the root causes of the performance differences and identify strategies to support all students in the district.
