Summary:
The White Sulphur Spgs K-12 district in Montana has only one middle school, White Sulphur Springs 7-8, which serves grades 7-8. This small, homogeneous school is significantly underperforming academically compared to state averages, ranking in the bottom 10% of Montana middle schools.
With just 38 students, White Sulphur Springs 7-8 has a very low student-teacher ratio of 8.5 to 1. However, the school's academic performance is concerning, with only 5.41% of students scoring proficient or better in mathematics, 21.62% in reading, and 18.18% in science - all well below the state averages. The school's 1-star rating and declining ranking over the past few years indicate a troubling trend of underperformance.
Despite the small class sizes, White Sulphur Springs 7-8 spends only $11,599 per student, slightly above the state average. With a student body that is 94.74% White, the school lacks diversity, which may be a contributing factor to its academic struggles. Further investigation would be needed to determine the root causes of this underperformance and identify potential areas for improvement.
