Summary:
The 58368 zip code area is home to two schools - Rugby Ely Elementary School and Rugby High School, both part of the Rugby 5 school district. While Rugby High School was once a top-performing school in the state, both schools have seen a decline in their statewide rankings in recent years, suggesting areas for improvement.
Rugby Ely Elementary School is currently ranked 33rd out of 53 North Dakota elementary schools, with a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school performs slightly above the state average in math and reading proficiency, but has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 20%. In contrast, Rugby High School was once ranked 7th out of 52 North Dakota high schools, but has since dropped to 45th place. The high school has a 84.2% four-year graduation rate and a 4.0% dropout rate, but also faces a 20% chronic absenteeism rate.
The per-student spending at Rugby Ely Elementary School is significantly higher than at Rugby High School, which may be an area to investigate further. Additionally, the free and reduced-price lunch rate at the elementary school is nearly double that of the high school, indicating potential differences in the socioeconomic backgrounds of the student populations. Overall, the data suggests that the district may want to focus on addressing chronic absenteeism and investigating the reasons behind the declining performance across both schools.
