Lincoln County High School

Lincoln County High School is the sole public high school serving grades 9-12 in Eureka, Montana, with a total enrollment of 305 students. While the school has shown mixed academic performance, with reading proficiency rates exceeding the state average but mathematics and science proficiency lagging behind, it faces challenges in maintaining a consistent ranking and serving a relatively high percentage of economically disadvantaged students.

According to the data, Lincoln County High School has seen its School Digger ranking fluctuate in recent years, dropping from a 4-star rating in the 2021-2022 school year to a 2-star rating in the 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 school years. This change in ranking suggests that the school's performance may have been impacted by various factors. Additionally, the school's mathematics proficiency rate of 20.75% is significantly lower than the state average of 37.06%, while its reading proficiency rate of 50.94% is higher than the state average of 45.88%. The school's science proficiency rate of 19.3% is also lower than the state average of 36.37%.

Another notable aspect of Lincoln County High School is its relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 44.26% for the 2023-2024 school year. This suggests that the school serves a population with a significant economic disadvantage, which could have implications for the school's resources, support systems, and overall educational outcomes.
