Summary

New England High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in New England, North Dakota, with a total enrollment of 122 students. The school is part of the New England 9 School District, which is ranked 116 out of 134 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, New England High School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from 29th to 119th out of North Dakota high schools in recent years. The school's performance on standardized tests, such as the A-Plus and NDSA assessments, is generally below the state averages in math, reading, and science proficiency across all grades. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 20% of 10th-grade students were proficient or better in math, compared to the state average of 22%. Additionally, the school has experienced a decline in its four-year graduation rates, from 84.2% in 2024-2025 to 53.3% in the same school year, which is lower than the state's overall four-year graduation rate of 57.1%.

The school faces challenges related to its student population, with 37.7% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year, indicating a relatively high proportion of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds. Despite an increase in per-student spending, from $10,000 in 2018-2019 to $16,091 in 2021-2022, and a relatively stable student-teacher ratio, the school's academic performance and graduation rates have not shown a corresponding improvement, suggesting that the school may need to focus on more effective utilization of its resources to drive student success.

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.

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMERS: Not all boundaries are included. We make every effort to ensure that boundaries are up-to-date. But it's important to note that these are approximations and are for general informational purposes only. To verify legal descriptions of boundaries or school locations, contact your local tax assessor's office and/or school district.
