Summary:
The 57350 zip code area is home to 9 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 3 high schools. While the district as a whole is struggling, with most schools performing below state averages, a few standout schools emerge from the data.
Huron High School - 01 has the largest student population and a relatively high 4-year graduation rate, but it has consistently ranked in the bottom third of South Dakota high schools. In contrast, the smaller Huron Colony Elementary - 13 and Riverside Colony Elementary - 15 schools have much lower chronic absenteeism rates, potentially due to their tight-knit communities.
Several schools, such as Buchanan K-1 Center - 18, have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-need student population. The two alternative high schools, Our Home ASAP - 12 and Our Home Rediscovery - 77, have very low graduation rates and high dropout rates, suggesting they are serving a highly at-risk student population. Overall, the data points to a need for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes across the Huron School District 02-2.
