Glasgow High School

Summary:

Glasgow High School is a public high school serving 234 students in grades 9-12 in Glasgow, Montana, a small town in the northeastern part of the state. The school's student body is predominantly White (88.46%), with smaller percentages of other racial backgrounds.

While Glasgow High School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from 40th out of 114 Montana high schools in 2021-2022 to 128th out of 138 in 2020-2021, its academic performance has consistently lagged behind the state average in Mathematics, Reading, and Science proficiency. The school's student-teacher ratio, however, has remained relatively low, ranging from 11.5 to 11.7 over the past three years. In comparison, the nearby Nashua High School, which serves only 34 students, has a significantly lower student-teacher ratio of 6.9 but has consistently ranked lower than Glasgow High School in the statewide rankings.

The analysis of Glasgow High School suggests that the school may be facing challenges in maintaining its academic standards compared to other high schools in Montana, as evidenced by its declining statewide ranking and lower-than-average proficiency rates. However, the school's modest racial diversity could be an asset in providing a more inclusive learning environment and preparing students for an increasingly diverse world. As Glasgow High School looks to the future, it may need to address the factors contributing to its academic performance and explore ways to leverage its strengths to enhance the educational experience for its students.

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.
