Summary:
The 59248 zip code in Montana is home to three schools: Nashua School (an elementary school), Nashua High School, and Nashua 6-8 (a middle school). Based on the available data, these schools appear to be performing below the state average on various metrics, including test scores, statewide rankings, and free/reduced lunch rates.
The test scores at these schools are significantly lower than the state averages. Nashua School has proficiency rates of just 14.81% in English Language Arts and 33.33% in Mathematics, compared to state averages of 43.09% and 36.77%, respectively. Nashua High School also lags behind the state averages in English Language Arts (62.5%), Mathematics (12.5%), and Science (25%). While Nashua 6-8 performs slightly better than the district average, it still falls short of the state benchmarks.
The high free/reduced lunch rates, particularly at Nashua School (77.55%), suggest that these schools serve a large population of students from low-income families. This raises concerns about educational equity and the ability of these schools to provide the necessary resources and support to ensure the success of their students. Additionally, the schools' statewide rankings have been declining over time, with Nashua High School dropping from a rank of 90 out of 113 high schools in 2015-2016 to 106 out of 182 high schools in 2024-2025. These trends suggest that the schools in the 59248 zip code are facing significant challenges in providing quality education to their students.
