Summary:
The 59523 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the schools share some common challenges, such as low statewide rankings and underperformance on state assessments, a few standout schools emerge from the data.
The smallest school in the area is Bear Paw School, with just 12 students. This school stands out for its high spending per student ($18,836), low student-teacher ratio (12:1), and unique racial makeup, with the highest percentage of white students (91.67%) and the only African American students (8.33%) in the area. In contrast, Chinook High School, the only high school in the data set, has the highest percentage of white students (82.46%) and the lowest percentage of Native American students (6.14%), but its academic performance is a concern, with significantly lower math proficiency compared to the state average.
Overall, the schools in the 59523 zip code area face challenges, with consistently low statewide rankings and underperformance on state assessments. The lack of free/reduced lunch rate data makes it difficult to assess the socioeconomic status of the student populations, but the high spending per student at Bear Paw School may suggest that the school is serving a more economically disadvantaged community. Further analysis of the socioeconomic factors could provide additional insights into the unique needs and challenges facing these schools and their communities.
