While the district as a whole is ranked 106th out of 126 districts in the state and rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger, Stanley County Elementary - 08 stands out as a high-performing school within the district.
Stanley County Elementary - 08 has consistently ranked among the top elementary schools in South Dakota, reaching as high as 46th out of 202 schools in the 2021-2022 school year.
