Stanford K-12 Schools

The Stanford K-12 Schools district in Montana consists of three schools: one elementary school, one middle school, and one high school. While the district has seen some academic success, particularly at the high school level in the past, the data reveals a mixed picture, with both strengths and areas for improvement across the schools.

Stanford High School has had a strong performance history, ranking among the top high schools in Montana in the late 2000s and early 2010s. However, its ranking has since declined significantly, dropping to the bottom half of the state's high schools in recent years. In contrast, the middle school, Stanford 7-8, has had a more inconsistent performance, with its ranking fluctuating between the middle and bottom tiers of Montana middle schools. The lone elementary school, Stanford School, has not seen the same level of academic success as the high school, but it maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, which could be a strength.

Across the district, the schools have a predominantly white student population, with the high school and middle school being entirely white. This lack of diversity may be an area for the district to explore and address. Additionally, the absence of data on free and reduced lunch rates makes it difficult to assess the socioeconomic status of the student populations and how that may impact the schools' performance. Overall, the Stanford K-12 Schools district presents a mixed picture, with both strengths and areas for improvement that warrant further investigation and action.
