Summary

District slides show Wayzata students outperforming state averages on MCAs (e.g., 75% proficiency in math vs. state 47%) while highlighting persistent disparities for American Indian/Alaska Native students and students in special populations.

Slides in the World’s Best Workforce presentation report that Wayzata outperformed statewide averages on 2024 mathematics and reading MCA/MTAS scores but that measurable gaps remain across racial and special-population groups.

The presentation lists 2024 mathematics proficiency for grades 3–8 as "2024 All Wayzata students, 75% State 47%" and notes a three-point district decline over three years while the state rose one point. Slides call out subgroup extremes in math proficiency with Asian students highest (90%) and American Indian/Alaska Native students lowest (24%), and state the latter group is very small so large fluctuations are typical. The slides also report math proficiency by special populations: students receiving special education services 47%, students eligible for free/reduced meals 43%, and students receiving English Learner services 41%.

Presentation slides frame these results against the district’s Equity Commitment and district operational plan, and the slides direct readers to askTL@wayzataschools.org for more information.
