VIKING ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

VIKING ELEMENTARY is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the MARSHALL COUNTY CENTRAL SCHOOLS school district, located in VIKING, MN with about 81 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 2nd Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 8 teachers, VIKING ELEMENTARY has a student/teacher ratio of about 10:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

As part of the broader Newfolden school district (commonly associated with the Marshall County Central School District), the school is dedicated to providing a structured and supportive learning environment for elementary-aged students. Its location in a small, rural setting allows for a close-knit school community that emphasizes fundamental academic development and character building within a traditional classroom structure.

The school operates under the mission of the Marshall County Central school system, which prioritizes student achievement and community engagement.
