Summary

While Wibaux High School once ranked as high as 5th out of 122 Montana high schools, its performance has declined in recent years, now ranking 168th out of 182 high schools statewide. The school's test scores are significantly below the state average, with only 20% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, and 0% proficient in Mathematics and Science. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students (47.22%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite these challenges, Wibaux High School does have some potential strengths, including a relatively low student-teacher ratio ranging from 6.5 to 7.8 students per teacher. However, this alone does not seem to be enough to overcome the school's academic struggles. The school's leadership and community will likely need to implement comprehensive strategies to improve the educational experiences and outcomes for its students.
