District-Level NCES Analysis

PARNASSUS PREPARATORY CHARTER SCH operates 3 public schools serving 1,384 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Minnesota. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 elementary, 1 high schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 1,352 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Hennepin County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $11,931 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 2.5% local, 84.7% state, and 12.8% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. The district's equity score — 31/100, ranked #333 of 417 in Minnesota against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 3 schools offering Advanced Placement (8 AP courses district-wide), and 11.6% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 50.2% African American, 27.3% White, 12.2% Asian across the district's schools.

Parnassus Prep Sch-Grammar accounts for 46.1% of all PARNASSUS PREPARATORY CHARTER SCH student enrollment

That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means PARNASSUS PREPARATORY CHARTER SCH-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: elementary. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.

PARNASSUS PREPARATORY CHARTER SCH chronic absenteeism rate is 11.6% — low (typically associated with lower-than-average attendance disruption; districts in this range often have attendance interventions, robust transportation, or smaller catchments that reduce barriers)

chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason — illness, family obligations, or disengagement Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
