Data showed that Renville County welcomed 1,796 students during the 2023-24 school year. Among them, Asian students comprised 0.3% of the student body to be the least represented ethnicity in the county.
According to the 2024 National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), Minnesota's fourth graders scored 241 in math, just above the national average of 237. Their reading score of 216 was on par with the U.S. average, but shows a slight decline over recent years. Eighth graders scored 284 in math and 264 in reading, both above the national averages.
However, despite these results, both grade levels remain below pre-pandemic levels in math and reading.
