High Schools in Whitehall High School

Whitehall High School is the sole high school serving the Whitehall, Montana area. Located in a small town, the school has faced declining performance in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 20th out of 124 schools in 2022-2023 to 135th out of 182 schools in 2024-2025. The school's academic proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are all below the state averages, indicating significant challenges in providing students with a strong academic foundation.

Despite having reasonable resources, with a per-student spending of $13,703 and a student-teacher ratio of 18.4, Whitehall High School serves a population with a high percentage (41.61%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting the school may be facing socioeconomic challenges that impact student performance. The school's declining ranking and below-average proficiency rates suggest that the available resources are not being effectively utilized or allocated to support student learning.

Overall, the data indicates that Whitehall High School is facing significant challenges in maintaining its academic performance and competitiveness among other high schools in Montana. Targeted interventions and a closer examination of resource allocation and utilization may be necessary to improve student outcomes and reverse the school's declining performance trend.
