GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Being that I'm limited to letters, i'll just start by saying a few things I did not know how to do before moving to Blooming Prairie. Read a clock, division, play guitar and flute, read fluently, cook and bake, and living independently. The worst part I've experienced with school is the people, being under a constant stress and the feeling of no self worth. As I've gotten older I realized that I don't have a problem with people but myself. My greatest experience was my junior year. Feeling the freeing relief of the weight upon my shoulders I finally started being apart of the rest of the world. I would love to see a world with more confidence and self worth. I wish for no one to feel lost, forgotten, unworthy, less than. Seeming impossible I want to help everyone, I want to take all the pain so that no one else have to.

Everyone is so kind and genuinely cares about each other. I've had the same friends since preschool and I am now a senior. Love this small town community.

It is very friendly. The class sizes are small which makes relationships with teachers easy, and you can seek help anytime. You make friends easily and feel like you're at home.
