Summary:

The 58401 zip code area of Jamestown, North Dakota is home to 5 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 6th grade. These schools, operated by the Jamestown 1 district, vary in their academic performance, student demographics, and resource allocation, providing parents with a range of educational options for their children.

Among the standout schools in the area is Roosevelt Elementary School, which has consistently ranked among the top 50 elementary schools in North Dakota over the past 3 years. This school boasts the lowest student-teacher ratio at 9.9, suggesting a more personalized learning environment. However, it also has the highest percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients at 48.34%, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. Another high-performing school is Louis L'Amour Elementary School, which was ranked among the top 25 elementary schools in the state in the 2014-2015 school year and maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.1, along with the highest spending per student at $15,412.

While the schools in the 58401 zip code area share a common challenge of high chronic absenteeism rates, with all 5 schools reporting a 20.0% rate for the 2024-2025 school year, the free and reduced lunch rates and spending per student vary significantly.

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.
