The Eureka Middle School 5-8 is the sole middle school serving grades 5-8 within the Eureka Elementary district in Montana. With a total enrollment of 254 students, the school is ranked 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average compared to other middle schools in the state.

While Eureka Middle School 5-8 has higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts (44.96%) compared to the state average (43.09%), it falls significantly behind in Mathematics (29.83% vs. 36.77%) and Science (29.46% vs. 38.16%). This suggests a need to focus on improving math and science instruction and outcomes at the school. Additionally, the school has a very high rate of 100% free/reduced lunch recipients, indicating it serves a highly economically disadvantaged population, which may contribute to the lower academic performance in certain subjects.

The school's student-teacher ratio of 18.6 is slightly higher than the typical recommended ratio, which could also be a factor in the school's academic performance, as smaller class sizes are generally associated with better student outcomes. Overall, the combination of lower test scores, high poverty levels, and larger class sizes likely contribute to Eureka Middle School 5-8's 2-star rating, indicating it is performing below average compared to other middle schools in Montana.
