About our rankings:
Schooldigger calculates school rankings based on A-Plus Math, A-Plus Reading, A-Plus Science test scores released by the North Dakota Department of Public Instruction.
These rankings were last updated on December 4, 2025, and are based on the most recent test scores available. We update rankings as we receive new test scores from the North Dakota Department of Public Instruction, usually on a yearly basis.
Our sources of data include the National Center for Education Statistics, U.S. Department of Education and the North Dakota Department of Public Instruction.

SchoolDigger data sources
: National Center for Education Statistics, U.S. Department of Education, the U.S. Census Bureau and the North Dakota Department of Public Instruction.
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.
