Dutton/Brady K-12 Schools

Summary:

The Dutton/Brady K-12 Schools district in Montana consists of four small schools: two elementary schools (Dutton/Brady Elementary and Midway Colony), one middle school (Dutton/Brady Middle School), and one high school (Dutton/Brady High School). The district serves a relatively small student population, with the largest school, Dutton/Brady Elementary, having just 36 students.

Among the schools, Dutton/Brady Middle School stands out as a strong performer, ranking 22nd out of 187 Montana middle schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its students have excelled in mathematics, with 64.71% proficient or better, though the district as a whole struggles in English Language Arts and Science, with proficiency rates well below the state averages. In contrast, Dutton/Brady High School has seen a significant decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 45th out of 111 schools in 2016-2017 to 143rd out of 182 in 2024-2025, indicating a need for improvement.

Across the district, the schools serve a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with free and reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 53.33% at Dutton/Brady Middle School to 64% at Dutton/Brady High School. This suggests that the district may need to provide additional resources and support to address the unique challenges faced by its student population and work towards improving educational outcomes for all.
