Summary:
The Harlowton K-12 district in Montana has only one middle school, Hillcrest 7-8, which serves students in grades 7 and 8. The district as a whole is ranked 195 out of 300 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Hillcrest 7-8 has a predominantly white student population, with 93.94% of students identifying as white. The school has maintained a consistent 2-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three school years, with a slight improvement to a 3-star rating in the 2020-2021 school year. Academically, Hillcrest 7-8's performance in mathematics, reading, and science is mixed compared to the Harlowton K-12 district and the state averages. While the school performs better than the district in reading and science, it lags behind the state averages in all three subject areas.
One notable aspect of Hillcrest 7-8 is its low student-teacher ratio of 9.5, suggesting a favorable learning environment with more individualized attention for students. However, the lack of racial diversity in the school's student population may be an area for the school and district to consider addressing.
