Summary:
The Lodge Grass School is the sole elementary school located within the Lodge Grass Elementary district in Montana. Despite the school's relatively small student population of 175 and a low student-teacher ratio of 10.2, the Lodge Grass School has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-20% of elementary schools in the state over the past three school years.
The school's academic performance is significantly below the state average, with only 5.88% of students proficient or better in English Language Arts, 18.07% in math, and 4.55% in science, compared to the state averages of 43.09%, 36.77%, and 38.16%, respectively. This indicates that the students at the Lodge Grass School are not receiving the same level of educational opportunities as their peers across the state. Additionally, the school has a 100% free and reduced-price lunch rate, suggesting a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $14,928 at the Lodge Grass School, which is significantly higher than the state average, the school's academic performance remains significantly below the state benchmarks. This raises questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources to support student learning at the school. Overall, the data suggests that the Lodge Grass School is a low-performing school that is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students, who are facing significant economic challenges.
