Summary:
The 59760 zip code area in Montana is home to two schools - Willow Creek School, an elementary school, and Willow Creek High School. These small, rural schools serve a predominantly White student population and face unique challenges in providing a comprehensive educational experience.
While Willow Creek School has a student enrollment of 35 and a student-teacher ratio of 6.6, the high school has an extremely small enrollment of just 9 students and a student-teacher ratio of 3.7. This raises questions about the long-term viability and sustainability of the high school. Both schools have relatively low state rankings, with Willow Creek School ranked 206th out of 332 elementary schools and Willow Creek High School ranked 105th out of 142 high schools.
The stark racial homogeneity of the student populations, with both schools reporting a 100% White student body, is noteworthy and may be an indicator of a lack of diversity in the local community or potential barriers to enrollment for non-White students. Additionally, the significant difference in per-student spending between the elementary school ($12,255) and the high school ($46,547) suggests that factors beyond just class size and student-teacher ratios may be contributing to the schools' performance, warranting further investigation.
