Grade-level results are uneven. The 5th grade is a clear bright spot: 81.82% proficient in ELA, 72.73% in Math, and 63.64% in Social Studies, all above state marks. Grades 6 and 7 also show above-state ELA proficiency at 53.85% and 60%. However, 7th grade Math is 10%, far below the stateβs 35.9%, and 6th grade Science is 30.77%, below the stateβs 41.2%. The schoolβs 3rd and 4th grade school-level results are suppressed, so those cannot be evaluated directly. Because enrollment is only 55 students, grade-level percentages can swing with very few test-takers, and the data lacks chronic absenteeism, per-student spending, and multi-year rank history. Overall, the schoolβs strengths are ELA, 5th grade Math, and 5th grade Social Studies; its visible vulnerabilities are 7th grade Math and 6th grade Science.
