Best Public Schools in Columbus, MT


Summary:

The city of Columbus, Montana, is home to three schools that serve students from elementary through high school. The data reveals that Columbus Elementary School and Columbus High School stand out as the stronger performers in the district, with the elementary school showing a positive trend in its statewide ranking and the high school maintaining a consistent ranking in the top half of Montana high schools.

Columbus Elementary School is ranked 78 out of 332 Montana elementary schools, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.2, which could contribute to better student outcomes. In contrast, Columbus High School has a higher student-teacher ratio of 17.1, but it has consistently performed in the top half of Montana high schools over the past three years.

The data also reveals a lack of diversity in the student population across all three schools, with a predominantly white student body and relatively low percentages of minority students. This may be an area for the Columbus Elementary and Columbus High School districts to explore and address, as diversity can contribute to a more enriching educational experience for students. Additionally, the absence of free and reduced lunch rate data limits the analysis of the socioeconomic status of the student population and potential challenges they may face.
