Summary:

The four schools in Gallatin County serve PK–12: two elementary schools, one middle school and one high school, with enrollments from 304 to 424 students. The most important area-wide finding is that 24 of the 26 reported 2025–2026 proficiency results were below state rates, with an average gap of 10 points.

Gallatin County Upper Elementary had the strongest individual result: grade 3 math proficiency was 52%, 9 points above the state’s 43%. Gallatin County Middle School also exceeded the state in grade 8 reading, 44% versus 40%, and had the smallest average gap among tested schools—6 points below state results, compared with 11 points below at Upper Elementary and 15 below at Gallatin County High School. The sharpest shortfalls were Upper Elementary grade 5 writing, 8% versus 35% (27 points below), and High School grade 11 writing, 22% versus 47% (25 points below). High School’s 98% graduation rate was above the state’s 94%, despite all five of its reported proficiency results trailing state rates.

Results shifted unevenly over time: across comparable results, the average gap widened by 2 points, from 8 points below the state in 2024–2025 to 10 points below in 2025–2026. Some changes went the other way: Upper Elementary grade 3 math rose 15 points, while Middle School grade 7 math fell 25 points. SchoolDigger’s 2025–2026 rankings were the 16th percentile for High School, 30th for Middle School and 23rd for Upper Elementary; their ratings were one, two and one stars, respectively. Student-teacher ratios ranged from 15.6 at Gallatin County Lower Elementary to 18.4 at High School. In 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible shares ranged from 75% at High School to 79% at Lower Elementary. Lower Elementary has no test results reported here, and comparisons across schools are limited because they test different grades.
