Summary:
The Lodge Grass Elementary district in Montana is home to two schools - Lodge Grass School, an elementary school, and Lodge Grass 7-8, a middle school. Both schools serve a predominantly Native American student population and struggle with extremely low state-wide rankings, indicating poor academic performance compared to other schools in the state.
The data shows that both Lodge Grass School and Lodge Grass 7-8 have very low state-wide rankings, with the elementary school ranking 326th out of 332 and the middle school ranking 185th out of 187. This suggests that the schools are underperforming and failing to provide a quality education to their students. Additionally, the schools have a severe lack of racial diversity, with Native American students making up over 96% of the student population at both campuses.
Despite the high per-student spending of $14,928 at both schools, the data does not indicate that this investment is translating into better academic outcomes. The unclear free/reduced lunch rates also make it difficult to assess the socioeconomic status of the student population. Overall, the Lodge Grass Elementary district appears to be struggling, and further investigation would be needed to identify the root causes of the schools' poor performance and develop strategies for improvement.
