The Havre Elementary school district in Montana consists of 4 schools, including 3 elementary schools (Sunnyside School, Highland Park School, and Lincoln-McKinley School) and 1 middle school (Havre Middle School). The data reveals notable differences in academic performance among these schools, as well as insights into their student demographics and resource allocation.

Lincoln-McKinley School stands out as the highest-performing elementary school, with the district's best proficiency rates in English Language Arts (38.81%) and Mathematics (38.81%). It also has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 17.5.

Overall, the Havre schools consistently score below the state averages in core academic subjects, indicating a need for improvement in educational outcomes across the district.
