Summary:
The Plains K-12 school district in Montana has only one middle school, Plains 7-8, which serves 68 students in grades 7 and 8. The school's student population is predominantly White (95.59%), with small percentages of Hispanic (2.94%) and Native American (1.47%) students.
Academically, Plains 7-8 has mixed performance compared to district and state averages. While its reading proficiency (46.27%) is slightly above the state average, its math (31.82%) and science (30.77%) proficiency rates fall below both the Plains K-12 district and the state of Montana. The school's ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 86 out of 190 middle schools in 2021-2022 to 107 out of 187 in the current 2022-2023 school year, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
With its small size and relatively homogeneous student population, Plains 7-8 may face challenges in providing a diverse educational environment and addressing its academic performance gaps in mathematics and science. Further analysis would be needed to understand the factors contributing to the school's fluctuating ranking and identify opportunities for improvement.
