Superior K-12 Schools

Summary:

The Superior K-12 Schools district in Montana consists of three schools: Superior Elementary, Superior High School, and Superior 7-8. The district serves students from elementary through high school and faces economic challenges, with all three schools having a 100% free/reduced lunch rate.

Superior Elementary stands out as a strong performer, ranking 177 out of 401 Montana elementary schools and earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperforms the district and state averages in proficiency rates for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science, and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.6. In contrast, Superior High School lags behind the state averages in proficiency rates, despite performing better than the district average in English Language Arts.

Across the district, the performance metrics are relatively consistent, suggesting a district-wide approach to curriculum and instruction. The small school sizes, with 185 students at Superior Elementary, 96 students at Superior High School, and 43 students at Superior 7-8, may allow for more personalized attention and support for students. However, the high level of economic disadvantage in the district presents challenges that the schools must address to improve student outcomes.
