Edgerton = Excellence!(Roseville School District). My daughter attended K-6. She excelled in every subject area. Edgerton offers music/band programs. Art is also offered, as well as a variety of enrichment classes. They also offer Gifted/Talented program which my daughter truly enjoyed because she needed and wanted the challenge. Drama/dance are also offered, as well as field trips and a weekend camping trip at the Audobon Ctr in Pine City. I had planned on sending my child to a private school, however, I'm glad I didn't. My child was challenged in science, math, reading, geography. In social studies she learned about many different religions and cultures. My daughter's class mates were chinese, white, asian, hmong and african american. I doubt she would have had this same experience with diversity had she attended a private school. The principal, Mr. Ahern, and his staff of teachers are absolutely the best! No regrets here.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Minnesota used the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment-II (MCA-II) to test students in reading in grades 3 through 8 and 10, and math in grade 11. The MCA-II is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Minnesota. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
