Summary:
The Canyon Creek School is the sole elementary school serving grades PK-5 within the Canyon Creek Elementary District in Montana. With a total enrollment of 148 students, the school's performance has seen a steady decline in its statewide ranking over the past three years, dropping from 174th out of 332 schools in 2022-2023 to 172nd out of 212 schools in the 2023-2024 school year.
Academically, Canyon Creek School's proficiency rates in mathematics (11.54%) and reading (21.79%) are significantly lower than both the district and state averages, indicating potential areas for improvement in core subjects. However, the school's science proficiency rate of 40% is higher than the district and state averages, suggesting strengths in this subject area. The school's relatively low free and reduced lunch rate of 2.03% suggests a relatively affluent student population, which may impact the school's resources and support systems.
Despite the school's academic challenges, it maintains a low student-teacher ratio of 11.9, which could indicate smaller class sizes and more individualized attention for students. Overall, the analysis of Canyon Creek School highlights the need for a closer examination of instructional practices, resource allocation, and targeted interventions to support student learning across all subject areas and improve the school's overall performance within the district and state.
