Summary

Cooke City School is a small elementary school serving grades PK-8 with just 03 students in the rural town of Cooke City, Montana. Despite its small size, this school stands out for its exceptional academic performance, consistently achieving 100% proficiency in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science - far exceeding the state averages.

The key to Cooke City School's success appears to be its incredibly low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 3:1 to 7:1 over the past three years. This allows for highly personalized attention and support for each student, likely contributing to their outstanding academic outcomes. While the school's free/reduced lunch rate is not provided, the community's small, rural setting may also foster a strong sense of engagement and support that positively impacts student learning.

Cooke City School's exceptional performance is not a one-time occurrence, but rather a consistent trend over the past three years. This suggests the school is providing an exceptional educational experience for its students. Without data on nearby schools or the Cooke City Elementary District, it's difficult to fully contextualize the school's success, but the available information indicates Cooke City School is a standout educational institution in the region.
