Troy High School

Troy High School is the sole public high school serving grades 9-12 in the Troy, Montana area, with a total enrollment of 132 students. While the school has seen some fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the past few years, it is currently ranked 101 out of 182 Montana high schools and is rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating it is not a standout performer in the state.

Troy High School's academic performance is a concern, with test scores in English Language Arts (52.78%), Mathematics (22.22%), and Science (25%) for 11th-grade students in 2024-2025 all falling below the statewide averages for Montana. Additionally, the school has a high percentage (100%) of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $15,901 for the 2018-2019 school year, the school's academic performance remains below the state average, raising questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources.

On a positive note, Troy High School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.7, which suggests smaller class sizes that can be beneficial for student learning. However, this factor alone does not appear to be enough to offset the school's other challenges, as evidenced by its declining statewide ranking and overall academic performance. To improve outcomes, Troy High School will need to address the needs of its economically disadvantaged student population and find more effective ways to utilize its resources to support student learning.
