Best Public Schools in Zip Code 59748

Summary:

The 59748 zip code area is home to two schools - Ramsay School, an elementary school, and Ramsay Middle School. While both schools serve the same community, the data analysis reveals notable differences in their academic performance and other key metrics.

Based on the available information, Ramsay Middle School appears to be the stronger performing school, with higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Science compared to Ramsay Elementary. The middle school also holds a higher statewide ranking, placing 98th out of 222 Montana middle schools, while the elementary school ranks 254th out of 401 elementary schools.

Ramsay Elementary has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 90th out of 212 elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 254th out of 401 in 2024-2025. Additionally, Ramsay Middle School has a relatively small student population of only 42 students, which could impact the school's long-term viability and the range of educational opportunities it can offer.
