Summary

Trego School is a small elementary school in Trego, Montana, serving grades PK-8 with just 13 students. The school is part of the Trego Elementary School District, which has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks 330 out of 387 districts in the state.

Trego School faces significant challenges, with academic performance well below the state average. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 33.33% of students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 43.09%, and just 14.29% were proficient in mathematics, far below the 36.77% state average. These struggles are likely exacerbated by the school's high poverty rates, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Additionally, the small school size and high student-teacher ratio of 4.3 to 11.8 may make it difficult to provide individualized attention and support.

While nearby Eureka Elementary School and Fortine School also face challenges, they perform significantly better than Trego School on key metrics. Addressing the underlying issues at Trego School, such as the high poverty rates, small size, and high student-teacher ratio, will be crucial for improving educational outcomes for its students.
