Summary:
The Baker K-12 Schools district in Montana has only one middle school, Baker 7-8, which serves 58 students from grades 7 and 8. The school has a very homogeneous student population, with 96.55% of students identifying as White, and its academic performance is mixed compared to state and district averages.
Baker 7-8 has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and its statewide ranking has fluctuated between 110th out of 187 middle schools in 2022-2023 and 139th out of 200 in 2020-2021. In terms of academic proficiency, the school lags behind the state averages in mathematics (28.81% vs. 36.59%), reading (43.33% vs. 46.03%), and science (35% vs. 37.03%), but performs better than the Baker K-12 Schools district average in reading and science.
Despite the relatively high spending per student at Baker 7-8 ($16,241 in 2018-2019), the school's academic performance suggests room for improvement. The lack of racial diversity and the fluctuating statewide ranking may be areas for the district to address in order to provide a more well-rounded and high-performing education for its middle school students.
