Best Public Schools in Zip Code 59248


Summary:

The 59248 zip code area is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Nashua K-12 Schools district. While the Nashua Elementary School and Nashua High School struggle with low academic performance, the Nashua 6-8 Middle School stands out as the highest-performing school in the area, ranking 135 out of 187 Montana middle schools and receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Nashua 6-8 Middle School has the highest proficiency rates in both math (30.43%) and reading (34.78%) compared to the district and state averages. In contrast, Nashua High School has the lowest statewide ranking, placing 128 out of 138 Montana high schools and receiving a 0-star rating. The high school also has the smallest student enrollment, with only 34 students. Nashua Elementary School has the lowest test scores, with just 19.05% proficiency in math and 33.33% in reading.

Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $14,209 across all three schools, which is above the state average, the academic performance remains a concern, particularly at Nashua High School, where the ranking has dropped significantly in recent years. Additionally, the high percentage of Native American students, coupled with the low academic outcomes and likely high poverty levels, suggest potential equity issues that may need to be addressed within the district.
