Kingsbury Colony Attn Center

Summary:

Kingsbury Colony Attn Center is a small elementary school in Valier, Montana, serving grades PK-8 with just 20 students. Despite its small size, the school has consistently underperformed compared to state averages and nearby schools like Valier School.

Kingsbury Colony Attn Center has a 100% white student population, which is significantly less diverse than the nearby Valier School, which has 28.21% Native American students. The school's proficiency rates in mathematics (20%) and reading (33.33%) are well below the state averages of 36.59% and 46.03%, respectively. Kingsbury Colony Attn Center also ranks in the bottom quarter of Montana elementary schools, coming in at 274 out of 332 schools, compared to Valier School's ranking of 284.

While Kingsbury Colony Attn Center has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.6, this does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes for its students. The school's performance is consistently lower than nearby schools like Pendroy School, Meadowlark School, and Valier School, suggesting that the school may be facing unique challenges or resource constraints that are not present in the surrounding area. Addressing these issues and improving the educational outcomes for Kingsbury Colony Attn Center's students should be a priority for the Valier Elementary School District.

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.
