Summary:
The city of St Ignatius, Montana is home to three schools that serve students from elementary through high school: St Ignatius Elementary School, St Ignatius High School, and St Ignatius Middle School. These schools, part of the St Ignatius K-12 Schools district, have a notable Native American student population, ranging from 47.6% at the elementary school to 60.99% at the high school.
While the district as a whole is ranked 210 out of 300 in Montana and rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, the high school stands out as the highest-ranked school in the district, ranking 69 out of 124 Montana high schools and earning a 2-star rating. The schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, ranging from 10.5 at the high school to 11.4 at the middle school, and all three schools report the same per-student spending of $11,492 for the 2018-2019 school year.
The high percentage of Native American students in the district is a significant and noteworthy aspect of the student population, which could indicate a need to ensure that the curriculum, teaching methods, and school culture are inclusive and responsive to the needs of this student group. Additionally, the absence of free and reduced lunch rate data is a notable gap in the information provided, as this metric is often used as an indicator of the socioeconomic status of a school's student population and can provide valuable insights into the challenges and needs of the community.
