Whitehall Elementary

The Whitehall Elementary district in Montana has two schools: Whitehall Elementary, an elementary school serving grades PK-5, and Whitehall 6-8, a middle school serving grades 6-8. While the schools have similar characteristics, such as comparable per-student spending and student-teacher ratios, there are some notable differences in their academic performance and student demographics.

Whitehall Elementary consistently ranks in the top third of Montana elementary schools, while Whitehall 6-8 has a lower ranking among the state's middle schools. This suggests that the elementary school may be performing better academically. Both schools have a predominantly white student population, with Whitehall 6-8 having an even higher percentage of white students compared to Whitehall Elementary. The data also indicates that the district allocates resources evenly across the two schools, as evidenced by the similar per-student spending and staffing levels.

However, the data set is missing some key information, such as the specific free and reduced lunch rates for each school, which could provide insights into the socioeconomic factors influencing the schools' performance. Overall, the Whitehall Elementary district appears to have two schools with similar characteristics, but with some differences in academic performance and student demographics that warrant further investigation to better understand the factors contributing to these differences.
