Middle Schools in Glendive Elementary

Summary:

The Glendive Elementary school district in Montana is home to a single middle school, Washington Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 144th out of 190 Montana middle schools in 2021-2022 to 150th out of 222 in 2024-2025.

Washington Middle School's proficiency rates in MAST/English Language Arts, MAST/Mathematics, and Montana Science Assessment/Science are generally below the state averages. In 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates were 46.44% in ELA, 14.11% in Math, and 27.16% in Science, compared to the state averages of 43.09%, 36.77%, and 38.16%, respectively. The school's particularly low performance in Mathematics, with a proficiency rate of just 14.11%, is a notable concern and may warrant further investigation.

Despite these academic challenges, Washington Middle School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12:1, which may indicate a focus on smaller class sizes. However, the school also serves a population with a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 49.19% in the 2024-2025 school year, suggesting that the school may face socioeconomic challenges that can impact academic performance and resource needs.
