Summary:

The Grenora 99 school district in North Dakota is home to a single elementary school, Grenora Elementary School, which serves 83 students from Pre-Kindergarten through 6th grade in a rural setting.

Grenora Elementary School has shown notable improvement, rising from a 2-star rating and a rank of 140th out of 217 schools in 2023-2024 to a 3-star rating and a rank of 90th out of 216 schools in 2024-2025. The school benefits from a very low student-teacher ratio of 8.3:1 and exceptionally high per-student spending of $21,623. Overall proficiency rates are slightly above the state average, with 44% of students proficient in both Math and Reading, and 39% in Science. The school also has a low free/reduced lunch rate of 19.28%.

A critical finding is a sharp decline in math proficiency as students progress through the grades, dropping from 69% in 3rd grade to just 20% in 6th grade—28 points below the state average. In contrast, reading proficiency peaks in 5th grade at 64.5% before falling in 6th grade. This pattern, along with a consistent dip in 6th-grade performance across all subjects, suggests a significant challenge in upper-elementary mathematics and a potential transition issue to middle school curriculum. Despite high spending and low poverty levels, the school's overall performance is only marginally above state averages, indicating that resources may not be translating into proportional academic gains.

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.
