Plevna 7-8

Summary:

Plevna 7-8 is a small public middle school in Plevna, Montana, serving just 14 students in grades 7-8 as part of the Plevna K-12 Schools district, which is ranked 23 out of 300 districts in the state.

Plevna 7-8 stands out for its consistently high academic performance, outpacing the state averages in both mathematics and reading proficiency on the Montana State Tests. In the 2022-2023 school year, 53.85% of Plevna 7-8 students were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to the state average of 36.59%, and 61.54% were proficient or better in reading, compared to the state average of 46.03%. This strong academic achievement has earned Plevna 7-8 a ranking as high as 4th out of 171 Montana middle schools in the past and a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger in the most recent year, in contrast to the nearby Baker 7-8 school, which has consistently ranked in the bottom half of the state's middle schools.

Plevna 7-8's small class sizes, with a student-teacher ratio of just 4.8 to 1, may contribute to its academic success, especially compared to the larger class sizes at Baker 7-8, which has a ratio of 10.2 to 1. However, the school's student population is also notably homogeneous, with 100% of students identifying as white, in contrast to the more diverse student body at Baker 7-8. While Plevna 7-8's strong performance is commendable, this lack of diversity raises questions about the school's ability to provide a truly inclusive learning environment for all 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.
