Top rankedBroadus 7-8178^th of 222 Montana middle schools

Summary:

The 59317 zip code is home to a single middle school, Broadus 7-8, which serves grades 7-8 and is part of the Broadus Elementary District. This small district is ranked 171 out of 387 districts in Montana and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Broadus 7-8 has a very small student population of only 24 students, which may contribute to its low academic performance. The school's proficiency rates in ELA (29.17%), math (20.83%), and science (22.22%) are all significantly lower than the state averages and the performance of the Broadus Elementary school. However, Broadus 7-8 has a very low student-teacher ratio of 6.2, indicating that students receive a high level of individual attention and support.

The data suggests that the transition from elementary to middle school may be an area of concern for the Broadus district, as the Broadus Elementary school has significantly higher test scores than the middle school. The district may want to examine the curriculum alignment and support systems in place to help students maintain their academic performance as they move up to the middle school level. Overall, Broadus 7-8 appears to be a small, underperforming middle school that could benefit from a closer examination of its curriculum, teaching practices, and support systems to improve student outcomes.
