Summary:
The city of Thompson Falls, Montana is home to 3 public schools serving students from elementary through high school. The schools in this area show a mix of strengths and areas for improvement, with Thompson Falls Elementary School standing out for its consistent above-average performance, while Thompson Falls High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking in recent years.
Thompson Falls Elementary School has maintained a 3- or 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three school years, indicating stable and above-average performance. This consistency, combined with the school's low student-teacher ratio of 14.7, suggests a strong educational environment at the elementary level. In contrast, Thompson Falls High School has seen its ranking drop from 28 out of 114 Montana high schools in 2021-2022 to 56 out of 124 in 2022-2023, a significant decline that raises concerns about the factors contributing to this performance drop.
Across the schools in Thompson Falls, there is a lack of racial diversity, with a predominantly white student population ranging from 87.67% to 88.56%. This homogeneity may impact the educational experiences and perspectives of the students. Additionally, the data is missing information on the free and reduced lunch rates for the 2022-2023 school year, which is an important indicator of the socioeconomic status of the student population and could provide valuable insights into the schools' demographics and potential challenges.
