Middle Schools in Belfry K-12 Schools

The Belfry K-12 Schools district in Montana contains a single middle school, Belfry 7-8, serving grades 7-8. With a small student population of just 06 students, the school's performance on standardized tests is mixed, with proficiency rates above the state average in Mathematics but below average in English Language Arts and Science.

Belfry 7-8 has a relatively low ranking among Montana middle schools, placing 83rd out of 222 in the 2024-2025 school year and dropping to 72nd out of 123 the following year. Its overall rating from SchoolDigger is 2 out of 5 stars, indicating room for improvement. However, the school's small size may present unique challenges and opportunities, and its high spending per student of $21,120 suggests it is well-resourced, though it's unclear if this investment is translating into better student outcomes.

Despite its mixed performance, Belfry 7-8 stands out for its exceptionally low student-teacher ratio of 2.1 to 1, which could provide students with more individualized attention and support. However, the sustainability of this ratio is uncertain given the school's small enrollment. Overall, the data suggests that while Belfry 7-8 has some strengths, it is a small, rural middle school that is struggling to consistently perform at a high level compared to other schools in Montana.
