Summary:
The 58301 zip code area is home to 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The schools in this area serve a diverse student population, with a significant Native American representation and varying levels of economic disadvantage. While some schools, such as Sweetwater Elementary School and Prairie View Elementary School, are performing well above the district and state averages in academic achievement, the middle and high schools, including Central Middle School and Devils Lake High School, are lagging behind.
The standout schools in the area are Sweetwater Elementary School and Prairie View Elementary School, both of which have consistently strong academic performance, with over 50% of students proficient in reading and math. These schools also have relatively low chronic absenteeism rates, suggesting a focus on attendance and engagement. In contrast, Devils Lake High School struggles with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 34%, which may be contributing to its lower academic outcomes.
The data also highlights the unique nature of the School for the Deaf PK-8, which serves a small student population of just 18 students with a remarkably low student-teacher ratio of 3:1. This specialized school likely provides a more personalized learning environment for its students. Overall, the schools in the 58301 zip code area present a mixed picture, with some high-performing elementary schools and challenges at the secondary level that the Devils Lake 1 and ND School for the Deaf districts will need to address to ensure all students in the area receive a quality education.
