Cavalier High School up 40 spots statewide this year
Summary:

Zip code 58220 has two schools: Cavalier Elementary School serves PK–5 and Cavalier High School serves grades 6–12. The clearest current signal is that both schools’ 2025–2026 math and reading ranges are above state results, though the overlapping ranges do not show which school is stronger.

In the exact 2024–2025 all-grades results, Cavalier Elementary led Cavalier High in all three subjects: math was 64% versus 20%, reading 61% versus 40%, and science 64% versus 50%, with school-to-school gaps of 45, 21, and 15 points, respectively. In the latest results, both schools’ math and reading ranges exceed state scores—54% in math and 57% in reading—but their ranges overlap. Elementary grade 4 stands out, with math at 80–98% versus 58% statewide and reading at 70–88% versus 59%; grade 3 reading is a weaker spot at 40–58% versus 60% statewide.

Cavalier High shows the sharpest reported year-to-year rise: math increased from 19.5% to 60–78% and reading from 39.5% to 70–88%, while state results also rose. Cavalier Elementary improved in math and reading but fell in science, from 64% to 45–53%. SchoolDigger ranks High 14th of 129 schools (89th percentile), up from 54th the prior year; Elementary ranks 44th of 216 (80th percentile) and has stayed around the 80th–82nd percentile over three years. In 2024–2025, student–teacher ratios were 12.9 at Elementary and 10.4 at High; free/reduced lunch eligible students were 21% and 20%, respectively. The schools serve different grade spans, and Elementary’s test table also includes grades 6–8, so not every school-to-school comparison is like for like.

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.
