Scobey High School

Summary:

Scobey High School is a small public high school in Scobey, Montana, serving around 82 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Scobey K-12 Schools district, which is ranked 74 out of 300 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Scobey High School has consistently outperformed the state average in proficiency rates for Mathematics, Reading, and Science on Montana state tests, with 2022-2023 proficiency rates of 52.38% in Mathematics, 66.67% in Reading, and 57.14% in Science, compared to the state averages of 36.59%, 46.03%, and 37.03%, respectively. However, the school's performance has fluctuated over the years, with a high ranking of 5 out of 124 Montana high schools in 2022-2023 and a low ranking of 95 out of 138 in 2020-2021. The school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 11.7 to 13.5 over the past three school years, suggesting a more personalized learning environment for students.

In the 2018-2019 school year, Scobey High School spent $10,824 per student, which is higher than the state average. While this could indicate that the school is investing more resources in its educational programs and facilities, it would be important to analyze how these funds are being allocated and whether they are translating into improved student outcomes. Additionally, the school's student population is predominantly white, with a relatively low percentage of racial and ethnic diversity, which may be an area for the school to address in terms of equity and inclusion.

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.
