Summary:

The 58563 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Prairie View Elementary School, which serves students in the New Salem-Almont 49 school district. While the district is ranked 29th out of 134 in North Dakota and has a 4-star rating, Prairie View Elementary's performance has declined in recent years, dropping from a statewide ranking of 114th out of 216 elementary schools in 2024-2025 to 163rd out of 215 in 2022-2023, with a corresponding drop in its SchoolDigger star rating from 2 to 1.

Academically, Prairie View Elementary's proficiency rates in Math and Science are slightly below the state averages, while its Reading proficiency is slightly above. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate is high at 20.0% for the 2024-2025 school year. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 23.26% in the 2023-2024 school year, which may be a factor in its academic performance.

Despite the school's declining performance, it does have a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.2 for the 2023-2024 school year, suggesting that the school may have sufficient resources and staffing to support student learning. However, the academic data indicates that this has not yet translated into strong student outcomes. Further analysis of the school's specific challenges and strategies for improvement could provide valuable insights for the district and the community.

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.
