Summary:

The Grand Forks 1 school district in North Dakota is home to 4 middle schools serving students in grades 6-8. Based on the data provided, Schroeder Middle School stands out as the top-performing middle school in the district, consistently ranking among the best in the state and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, Valley Middle School appears to be the weakest performer, with a 0-star rating and significantly lower test scores in both math and reading compared to the district and state averages.

Across the district, the middle schools have relatively consistent dropout rates of 4.0% and chronic absenteeism rates of 20.0%. However, the free/reduced lunch rates vary significantly, with Schroeder Middle School having the lowest rate at 15.66% and Valley Middle School having the highest rate at 49.9%. This suggests a potential relationship between socioeconomic status and academic performance, an area that warrants further investigation.

The student-teacher ratios also differ across the schools, with Nathan Twining Middle School having the lowest ratio at 6.6 and Valley Middle School having the highest ratio at 9.3. This variation in staffing levels may be an interesting factor to explore in relation to the quality of instruction and personalized attention students receive.

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.
