Elementary Schools in St Ignatius K-12 Schools

The St Ignatius K-12 Schools district in Montana has only one elementary school, St Ignatius Elementary School, which serves a diverse student population with a high percentage of Native American students. While the school's spending per student is relatively high, its academic performance lags behind state averages, with proficiency rates in mathematics, reading, and science well below the state benchmarks.

St Ignatius Elementary School has a fluctuating school ranking, ranging from 251 out of 329 Montana elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 316 out of 356 schools in 2020-2021. The school's 1-star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2022-2023 school year further highlights its academic challenges, with only 31.3% of students scoring proficient or better in mathematics, 26.96% in reading, and 27.27% in science, compared to the state averages of 36.59%, 46.03%, and 37.03%, respectively.

Despite the school's relatively high spending per student of $11,492 in the 2018-2019 school year and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 10.9 to 1, the data suggests that the school is struggling to provide effective instruction and support for its diverse student population. This underperformance in academic proficiency indicates the need for targeted interventions and support to improve student learning and achievement at St Ignatius Elementary School.
