Top rankedRonan High School150^th of 182 Montana high schools

Summary:

The 59864 zip code is home to a single high school, Ronan High School, which serves grades 9-12. Based on the available data, Ronan High School appears to be a below-average performer compared to other high schools in Montana.

Ronan High School is ranked 150 out of 182 high schools in the state and has a low 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates on the ACT with Writing exam are significantly below the state averages in all subject areas, with the 30% proficiency rate in English Language Arts being nearly 25 percentage points lower than the state average. Additionally, 100% of Ronan High School's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a very high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

While Ronan High School's per-student spending of $10,729 for the 2018-2019 school year is higher than the national average, this does not appear to be translating into better outcomes for students. The school's slightly higher student-teacher ratio of 17.5 may also be a contributing factor to its poor performance, as larger class sizes can make it more difficult for teachers to provide individualized attention and support. Overall, the data suggests that Ronan High School is struggling to provide a high-quality education to its students and significant improvements would be needed to bring the school up to par with other high-performing schools in Montana.
