Summary:
The Noxon Elementary district in Montana contains a single middle school, Noxon 7-8, which serves grades 7-8. The school's performance has been inconsistent, with its statewide ranking fluctuating significantly over the past few years, ranging from 82nd out of 187 middle schools in 2022-2023 to 196th out of 222 in 2024-2025. Its current 1-star rating from SchoolDigger suggests the school is performing below average compared to other middle schools in Montana.
Noxon 7-8's academic proficiency rates in English Language Arts (23.08%), Mathematics (11.54%), and Science (22.22%) are all significantly lower than the state averages (43.09%, 36.77%, and 38.16%, respectively). The school has a very high percentage of students (96.43%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Despite the higher per-student spending of $11,085 and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 6.3 to 1, the school's academic performance remains a concern.
Overall, the data suggests that Noxon 7-8 is a struggling middle school that faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. Further investigation into the school's specific strategies, resource allocation, and support systems may be necessary to identify opportunities for improvement and better support the needs of the school community.
