Summary:
The Mountain Iron-Buhl School District in Minnesota is home to a single high school, Mountain Iron-Buhl Secondary, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's academic performance has seen some challenges in recent years, with mixed proficiency rates compared to state averages, particularly in math and reading.
Mountain Iron-Buhl Secondary has a student enrollment of 268, with a diverse racial makeup and a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, as indicated by the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. While the school's overall proficiency rates in reading and science are higher than the state averages, its math proficiency, especially in 11th grade, is notably lower. The school's ranking and rating on SchoolDigger have also fluctuated, going from a 4-star rating to a 2-star rating in the past few years, suggesting inconsistency in educational outcomes.
Despite these challenges, the Mountain Iron-Buhl School District is committed to supporting its students and improving academic performance. The district and school leadership will need to closely examine the underlying causes of the declining academic performance and develop targeted strategies to address the needs of their diverse student population, particularly in the area of math instruction and support.
