Summary:
Geyser K-12 Schools is a small rural school district in Montana that serves a single high school, Geyser High School. With just 13 students, Geyser High School has faced significant challenges in recent years, including a dramatic decline in its statewide ranking from a high of 14th out of 138 schools in 2005-2006 to a low of 147th out of 182 schools in 2024-2025.
The school's academic performance has been a concern, with proficiency rates on the ACT with Writing falling well below the state averages in all subjects, particularly in mathematics. Additionally, the school's district, Geyser K-12 Schools, is ranked 234 out of 387 districts in Montana and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, the school's small size and low student-to-teacher ratio of 5.2 suggest that students may receive a high level of individual attention, which could be a potential strength.
Despite the challenges faced by Geyser High School, the data provides an opportunity to better understand the unique needs of small, rural schools and identify strategies to support student success. Further analysis and collaboration with the community may be necessary to address the root causes of the school's declining performance and ensure that all students in the Geyser K-12 Schools district have access to a high-quality education.
