Summary

Lustre School is a small elementary school in Frazer, MT, serving grades PK-8 with just 42 students. Despite its small size, Lustre School consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Montana, with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and a ranking as high as 3rd out of 356 schools in the 2020-2021 school year.

The school's strong academic performance is evident in its proficiency rates, which significantly outpace the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. Lustre School also benefits from a very low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 8.1 to 12.2 over the past few years, providing students with a high level of individualized attention and support. Additionally, the school serves a population with a higher level of economic need, with 48.98% to 50% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, yet it is still able to achieve these impressive results.

The higher spending per student at Lustre Elementary District, which is ranked 30 out of 387 districts in Montana, likely contributes to the school's strong academic performance and low student-teacher ratio. This suggests that the district is committed to providing the resources and funding necessary to support a high-quality education for its students.
