Summary:
The 55345 zip code area is home to a high-performing cluster of schools, primarily within the Minnetonka Public School District, which is ranked 8th out of 463 districts in Minnesota and has a 5-star rating. This data set covers 9 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools.
Several schools stand out as top performers in the area. Minnetonka Senior High is ranked 3rd out of 480 Minnesota high schools, with exceptional test scores and a 96.5% 4-year graduation rate. Scenic Heights Elementary and Groveland Elementary are both ranked in the top 10 out of 881 Minnesota elementary schools, with outstanding test scores that far exceed state and district averages.
While the Minnetonka schools generally perform at a high level, there is a notable disparity in performance between the Minnetonka schools and the two Hopkins Public School District schools (Glen Lake Elementary and Gatewood Elementary) located in the 55345 zip code. The Minnetonka schools significantly outperform the Hopkins schools on test scores and other metrics. Additionally, the virtual schools in the Minnetonka district, Tonka Online and Tonka Online K-5, have lower test scores compared to the traditional brick-and-mortar schools, suggesting the virtual learning model may not be as effective for all students.
