Summary

Anaconda Senior High School is a public high school serving grades 9-12 in Anaconda, Montana, with a total enrollment of 305 students. The school is part of the Anaconda High School District, which is ranked 206 out of 387 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While the school has a relatively high spending per student of $11,625, its academic performance has been consistently below the state average. In the 2024-2025 school year, Anaconda Senior High School's proficiency rates were 46.03% in English Language Arts, 28.57% in Math, and 25.4% in Science, compared to the state averages of 54.99%, 31.25%, and 30.03%, respectively. Additionally, the school has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, reaching 100% in the 2024-2025 school year, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite the school's relatively small class sizes, with a student-teacher ratio ranging from 12.2 to 16.9 in recent years, its performance and ranking within the state have declined over time. In 2018-2019, Anaconda Senior High School was ranked 50 out of 119 Montana high schools and had a 3-star rating, but by 2024-2025, its ranking had dropped to 92 out of 182 and its rating remained at 3 stars. These challenges suggest the need for the school and district to explore strategies to improve academic outcomes and support economically disadvantaged students.
