What stands out about Randolph Public School District

  • Estimated teacher pay here moved +7.8% between FY2019 and FY2023, trailing Minnesota's statewide +14.0% by 6.2 points, a growth rate faster than 25% of the 326 Minnesota districts with a comparable FY2019 baseline.
  • Enrolment grew 23.1% here, from 684 students in FY2019 to 842 in FY2023, against a national picture where far more districts shrank than grew over the same period. Growth of this kind typically arrives before the funding that follows it, so per-pupil figures often dip while a district absorbs it.
