Summary

Mandaree High School is a small public high school serving grades 9-12 in Mandaree, North Dakota, with a student population of just 54 students. The school is part of the Mandaree 36 school district, which is ranked 127 out of 134 districts in the state. Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending, Mandaree High School has consistently underperformed compared to state averages in academic measures, ranking 97 out of 125 North Dakota high schools and receiving a 1 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mandaree High School's graduation rates have fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 66.7% to 84.2%, with the 2024-2025 rate of 84.2% being higher than the state average. However, the school's academic performance, as measured by standardized test scores, is significantly below the state averages in math, reading, and science. Additionally, Mandaree High School has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 70.37% to 75.56%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Interestingly, the nearest high school to Mandaree High School is New Town High School, which is part of the New Town 1 school district and has a larger student population of 279 students. While New Town High School is also part of a low-performing school district, its academic performance, as measured by test scores and graduation rates, is generally higher than Mandaree High School's. This suggests that Mandaree High School may face unique challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students, despite the relatively high per-student spending.

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.
