Summary:
Deubrook Area School District 05-6 in South Dakota has a single middle school, Deubrook Junior High - 02, which serves grades 6-8. While the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years, it has some notable strengths, such as strong 8th-grade science proficiency rates, but also faces challenges in maintaining academic performance across all subject areas.
Deubrook Junior High - 02 has a relatively small student population of 56 students and a low student-teacher ratio of 12.9, indicating a high level of staffing resources. The school's per-student spending is also higher than the state average, suggesting a significant investment in the school. However, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are below the district and state averages, and its chronic absenteeism rate is higher than the state average, which may be contributing to its academic performance challenges.
Despite the school's resource allocation and investment, its academic outcomes have been mixed, with a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years. The school's strengths in science proficiency are a bright spot, but the district and school leadership may need to explore targeted interventions and strategies to address the school's overall performance and improve student outcomes across all subject areas.
