Summary

Beulah Middle School is a public middle school in Beulah, North Dakota, serving grades 5-8 with a total enrollment of 240 students. The school's performance has fluctuated over the past several years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 9th out of 26 middle schools in 2024-2025 to as low as 24th out of 27 in 2022-2023. However, the school has consistently outperformed the state average in both math and reading proficiency, with 52% of students proficient or better in math and 45% proficient or better in reading, compared to the state averages of 41% and 40%, respectively.

One area of concern for Beulah Middle School is its relatively high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 18% to 20% over the past few years, which is higher than the state average. On the other hand, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13.2 to 14.5 students per teacher, which is lower than the nearby Hazen Middle School, which had a student-teacher ratio of 19.2 in the 2023-2024 school year. Additionally, Beulah 27 school district has seen an increase in spending per student at Beulah Middle School, from $6,874 in 2018-2019 to $8,230 in 2020-2021, which may have contributed to the school's academic performance and resources available to students.

While Beulah Middle School has demonstrated some strengths, such as higher academic performance compared to the state average, the school also faces challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates. Continued monitoring and targeted interventions may be necessary to address these areas of concern and ensure that all students have the opportunity to succeed.

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.

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.
