Summary:
The Lemmon School District 52-4 in South Dakota has only one middle school, Lemmon Junior High - 06. This small school serves a student population of just 56 students and has consistently ranked in the lower half of middle schools in the state, with a ranking of 93 out of 147 schools in the 2023-2024 school year.
Lemmon Junior High - 06's academic performance is a concern, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science all below the state average. The school's chronic absenteeism rate is also higher than the state average, which may be contributing to its declining performance on Smarter Balanced Assessments in recent years. While the school's per-student spending is higher than the state average and its student-teacher ratio is relatively low, these resources do not appear to be translating into improved educational outcomes for the students.
Overall, Lemmon School District 52-4 has room for improvement when it comes to the performance of its sole middle school, Lemmon Junior High - 06. The district may need to evaluate its instructional practices and resource allocation to better support the academic success of its middle school students.
