Summary:

The 58228 zip code has only one school, Emerado Elementary School, which serves grades PK-8 with an enrollment of 107 students. The school is part of the Emerado 127 school district, which is ranked 122 out of 134 districts in North Dakota and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Emerado Elementary School has consistently performed poorly, ranking between the 186th and 197th out of 203-217 North Dakota elementary schools in recent years. The school's academic performance is significantly below the state averages in both math and reading proficiency, with only 19% of students proficient or better in math compared to the state average of 41%. Despite higher-than-average spending of $17,777 per student and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 7.6 to 1, the school's outcomes remain poor.

The school also has a high rate of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, at 71.96% in the 2023-2024 school year, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. While the small size and intimate learning environment may be beneficial, these factors do not appear to be translating into better academic results for the students at Emerado Elementary School.

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.

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.
