Summary:
The 59087 zip code in Montana is home to three small, rural schools: Winnett School (an elementary school), Winnett High School, and Winnett 7-8 (a middle school). These schools, part of the Winnett K-12 Schools district, stand out for their strong academic performance, particularly at the elementary level, as well as their small class sizes.
The Winnett School is the standout, ranking 34th out of 332 Montana elementary schools and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its students significantly outperform the state averages in both math and reading proficiency, with 65.22% and 60.87% of students proficient or better, respectively, compared to the state averages of 36.59% and 46.03%. The school's low student-teacher ratio of 6.3 may contribute to its strong academic results. The Winnett 7-8 middle school also has a low student-teacher ratio of 6.3 and is ranked 55th out of 200 Montana middle schools.
While the schools in the 59087 zip code demonstrate academic excellence, they also face some unique challenges. All three schools have a 100% white student population, with no racial diversity reported, and the data does not provide information on free/reduced lunch rates. Additionally, the small student populations, ranging from 10 to 36 students, may limit the breadth of educational and extracurricular opportunities available to the students. The fluctuating SchoolDigger rankings for the high school and middle school also suggest potential instability or inconsistency in their performance over time.
