Edgemont High School - 01

Summary:

Edgemont High School - 01 is a small public high school serving grades 9-12 in the rural town of Edgemont, South Dakota, with a student population of around 40. While the school has consistently outperformed the state average in English Language Arts and Science, its performance in Mathematics has been below average. Edgemont High School - 01 also stands out for its relatively homogeneous student population, with around 90% of students identifying as White, significantly higher than the nearby Hot Springs High School - 01.

Edgemont High School - 01 has experienced significant fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the years, ranging from a high of 15th out of 138 South Dakota high schools in 2017-2018 to a low of 134th out of 140 in 2020-2021. This suggests inconsistent academic performance. Additionally, the school's free and reduced-price lunch rates have fluctuated, potentially indicating equity concerns. Compared to Hot Springs High School - 01, Edgemont High School - 01 has a lower student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student, but lower performance in Mathematics.

While the school has strengths in certain academic areas, its inconsistent performance, racial homogeneity, and potential equity concerns warrant further investigation and attention to ensure all students receive a high-quality education.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
