High Schools in Big Sandy K-12


Summary:

The Big Sandy K-12 school district in Montana contains a single high school, Big Sandy High School, which serves grades 9-12. While the school has shown some improvement in its statewide ranking over the past few years, it still ranks relatively low compared to other high schools in Montana.

Big Sandy High School's statewide ranking has improved from 104th out of 124 high schools in 2022-2023 to 61st out of 182 high schools in 2024-2025, earning a 3-star rating. However, the school's performance on standardized tests remains mixed, with students scoring above the state average in mathematics but below average in English Language Arts. Additionally, nearly half (49.15%) of the school's students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite its challenges, Big Sandy High School has some strengths, including a small student-teacher ratio of 7.9 and strong performance in mathematics compared to the state average. The school's small size of just 59 students may present both opportunities and obstacles in terms of resources and personalized attention. Overall, while Big Sandy High School has shown signs of improvement, it still faces significant challenges in improving its academic performance and statewide ranking within the Big Sandy K-12 district.
