Best Public Schools in Choteau, MT

Summary:

The city of Choteau, Montana is home to three schools: one elementary school, one middle school, and one high school. Based on the available data, Choteau High School emerges as the standout institution, consistently ranking among the top high schools in the state and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

In contrast, Choteau School (the elementary school) and Choteau 7-8 (the middle school) have lower statewide rankings and fewer stars, suggesting they may not be performing as well as the high school. The racial makeup of the schools is relatively homogeneous, with a majority white student population, which could indicate a lack of diversity or challenges in attracting and retaining students from different racial backgrounds.

While the data does not provide information on free and reduced lunch rates, the student-teacher ratios offer some insight, with Choteau High School having the lowest ratio at 10.5, followed by Choteau School at 13.3 and Choteau 7-8 at 14.9. This suggests the high school may be providing a more personalized learning environment compared to the other schools in the Choteau High School district and the Choteau Elementary district.
