Q: Is Anna Jeffries Elementary a good school?

Anna Jeffries Elementary ranks 218 th of 332 Montana elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Anna Jeffries Elementary is a public elementary school in Cut Bank, Montana, serving 95 students in grades 4-5. The school is part of the Cut Bank Elementary School District, which is ranked 251 out of 300 school districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Anna Jeffries Elementary outperforms the overall Cut Bank Elementary School District in academic proficiency, its student population is more diverse, with a significant percentage of Native American (32.63%) and two or more races (22.11%) students, compared to the predominantly white student populations at nearby schools like Zenith Elementary, Glacier Elementary School, Hidden Lake Elementary, and Horizon Elementary. However, Anna Jeffries Elementary's proficiency rates in Mathematics, Reading, and Science are still below the statewide averages for Montana.

Despite its academic strengths compared to the district, Anna Jeffries Elementary has consistently ranked in the middle to lower range of Montana elementary schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger in recent years. This trend suggests the school may be facing challenges in maintaining or improving its performance over time. In contrast, the nearby Glendale School has achieved a higher 4-star rating, indicating that there may be opportunities for collaboration or learning from the practices of higher-performing schools in the region.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
