Summary:

The zip code 58301 in North Dakota is home to a single middle school, Central Middle School, which serves students in grades 6-8. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher-than-average spending per student, its academic performance has been declining in recent years, with proficiency rates in mathematics and reading falling below the state average.

Central Middle School's student body is predominantly White (67.37%) and Native American (27.22%), with a significant population (42.47%) of economically disadvantaged students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This demographic profile may contribute to the school's academic challenges, which have resulted in a drop in its statewide ranking from 19th out of 28 middle schools in 2021-2022 to 22nd out of 24 middle schools in 2023-2024. The school's high chronic absenteeism rate of 25% is another area of concern that may be impacting student learning.

Despite the higher-than-average spending per student, the school's academic performance remains below the state average, suggesting the need for the Devils Lake 1 district to closely examine its resource allocation and ensure that funds are being directed towards evidence-based strategies and programs that can positively impact student learning. Targeted interventions and support programs focused on addressing the unique needs of the school's economically disadvantaged and Native American student populations could be crucial in improving overall student outcomes.

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.
