Summary:

Alexander 2 has two schools serving grades PK–12: Alexander Elementary School (PK–6 listed; 195 students) and Alexander High School (grades 7–12; 114 students), with 309 students combined. The clearest current difference is in all-grade math: Elementary scored 60–68% in 2025–2026, while High scored under 40%, a gap of more than 20 points.

Elementary had the stronger all-grade results in 2024–2025, leading High by 19 points in math (39% vs. 20%), 13 points in reading (33% vs. 20%), and 10 points in science (54% vs. 44.5%). Among the reported grade-level results, fourth-grade reading was a standout at 80–98%, compared with 59% statewide; eighth-grade reading was under 40%, versus 54% statewide. High’s test scores were lower than the state in 2024–2025 for math and reading, but its 2025–2026 graduation rate was 87%, matching the state and district. The schools serve different grade spans, and eighth grade is outside Elementary’s listed grades, so these figures do not provide a same-grade comparison.

Elementary’s all-grade math and reading results rose from 39% to 60–68% and from 33% to 55–63%, respectively, between 2024–2025 and 2025–2026; High’s reading moved from 20% to 30–59%, while its math result remains bounded below 40%, so its direction is unclear. SchoolDigger’s rankings also diverged: Elementary rose from the 14th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 59th in 2025–2026, while High moved from the 28th to the 20th. These rankings are not test-score percentages. As additional context, free/reduced lunch eligible shares in 2024–2025 were about 32% at Elementary and 33% at High; student-teacher ratios were 10.2 and 7.6, respectively. Elementary’s chronic absenteeism was 22% in 2025–2026, 3 points above the state and district rates.

IMPORTANT NOTE: North Dakota does not publish exact assessment percentages; instead, results are reported as ranges (e.g., 20-29%) to protect student privacy in smaller groups. The proficiency rates displayed on SchoolDigger are calculated using midpoint imputation—the center value of each reported range. Actual values may differ by up to 5 percentage points from the figures shown.

About North Dakota Assessment Data: To protect student privacy, the North Dakota Department of Public Instruction reports assessment results as percentage ranges rather than exact values. SchoolDigger calculates proficiency rates using midpoint imputation, which uses the center value of each reported range. For example, a reported range of 20-29% is represented as 24.5%. As a result, the proficiency rates shown may vary by approximately ±5 percentage points from actual values. This variance is most significant for individual grade/subject combinations and diminishes when data is aggregated across multiple grades or subjects.

But it's important to note that these are approximations and are for general informational purposes only.
