Best Public Schools in Zip Code 59821


Summary:

The 59821 zip code area is home to 3 public schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school. Unfortunately, these schools are all performing well below the state average on key metrics like test scores and statewide rankings, suggesting systemic challenges that need to be addressed.

None of the schools in the 59821 area can be considered standouts. Arlee Elementary, Arlee High School, and Arlee 7-8 all have proficiency rates that are significantly lower than the state averages in math, reading, and science. Additionally, all three schools are ranked in the bottom half of their respective school types in the state, and have consistently been in the bottom half over the past 3 years.

One notable characteristic of these schools is their high percentage of Native American students, ranging from 45.52% to 50% of the student population. This highlights the need to ensure educational equity and support for this student demographic. While the schools have higher than average spending per student, this does not appear to be translating to better academic performance. The relatively low student-teacher ratios could present an opportunity for more individualized attention, but this alone has not driven improved outcomes. Overall, the schools in the 59821 zip code area face significant challenges in providing a high-quality education for their students, and addressing these systemic issues will be crucial to driving progress.
