Summary:

The 58601 zip code area in North Dakota is home to three high schools: Dickinson High School, Southwest Community High School, and Roughrider High Virtual Academy. Based on the available data, Dickinson High School stands out as the highest-performing school in the area, with strong test scores, graduation rates, and statewide rankings.

Dickinson High School is the largest of the three schools, with 1,060 students, and has the highest statewide ranking at 4 out of 14 North Dakota high schools. The school outperforms the district and state averages in math, reading, and science proficiency for both 10th grade and all grades. For example, in 2024-2025, 45% of Dickinson High School 10th graders were proficient or better in science, compared to 44% for the Dickinson 1 district and 30% for the state.

The two smaller schools, Southwest Community High School and Roughrider High Virtual Academy, have much lower student enrollment but also lower student-teacher ratios, which could indicate a more personalized learning environment. However, the lack of free/reduced lunch data for these schools makes it difficult to fully assess their socioeconomic demographics compared to Dickinson High School, which has 18.3% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

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.
