CROSSROADS SCIENCE PROGRAM

CROSSROADS SCIENCE PROGRAM is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Saint Paul Public Schools school district, located in SAINT PAUL, MN with about 299 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 5th 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 18 teachers, CROSSROADS SCIENCE PROGRAM has a student/teacher ratio of about 16:1. 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.

Crossroads Science, located at 543 Front Ave in Saint Paul, Minnesota, is a specialized elementary school within the Saint Paul Public Schools (SPPS) district. As its name suggests, the school centers its curriculum around a robust science-based theme, aiming to foster curiosity and critical thinking skills in students from an early age. By integrating scientific inquiry into daily learning, the school encourages children to explore the natural world, engage in hands-on experimentation, and develop a strong foundation in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) principles.

In addition to its focus on science, Crossroads serves as a community hub that emphasizes personalized learning and student engagement. The school works to create an inclusive environment where students can thrive academically while exploring their unique interests. As part of the broader Saint Paul Public Schools system, Crossroads benefits from district resources and a structured academic program designed to prepare students for success in middle school and beyond. Families interested in specific enrollment details, academic calendars, or current school initiatives can find comprehensive information on the district’s official website at [www.spps.org](http://www.spps.org).
