Summary:

The 58040 zip code in North Dakota is home to a single high school, North Sargent High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. With a total enrollment of just 63 students, North Sargent High School is a relatively small high school in the North Sargent 3 school district.

Academically, North Sargent High School faces significant challenges. The school's 4-year graduation rate of 84.2% is lower than the state average, and its proficiency rates on state assessments in math, reading, and science are well below the state averages. For example, only 10% of 10th graders at North Sargent High School were proficient in math, compared to a 22% state average. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has dropped from 110 out of 122 schools in 2023-2024 to 124 out of 125 schools in 2024-2025, indicating a concerning trend of declining performance over time.

Despite the academic challenges, North Sargent High School spends a relatively high amount per student at $16,455, and has a very low student-teacher ratio of 7:1. This suggests that the issue may not be a lack of resources, but rather how those resources are being utilized to support student learning. Additionally, the school serves a population with significant economic challenges, with 46.03% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which may contribute to the academic performance issues and require additional support and resources.

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.
