Summary:
Wibaux K-12 Schools is a small school district in Montana that serves the town of Wibaux and the surrounding area. The district has only one high school, Wibaux High School, which has seen a decline in its academic performance and statewide ranking in recent years.
Wibaux High School's proficiency rates on the ACT with Writing exam in 2024-2025 were significantly lower than the state average, with only 20% of students proficient in English Language Arts, 0% in Mathematics, and 0% in Science. The school's statewide ranking has dropped from 68th out of 111 Montana high schools in 2016-2017 to 168th out of 182 in 2024-2025. Despite having a relatively low student-to-teacher ratio of 6.6 to 1 and a high per-student spending of $20,675 for the 2018-2019 school year, the school's academic performance remains poor.
The data suggests that Wibaux K-12 Schools may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the specific needs of its student population, which has a high percentage (47.22%) of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. The school's declining performance and the district's limited resources highlight the challenges faced by small, rural school districts in providing a high-quality education to their students.
