Summary:

The 58640 zip code in North Dakota is home to a single elementary school, Killdeer Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 and has an enrollment of 357 students. The school is part of the Killdeer 16 school district, which is ranked 12th out of 23 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Killdeer Elementary School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, going from a 1-star rating in 2022-2023 to a 3-star rating in 2024-2025, indicating some improvements but still inconsistent performance. The school's reading proficiency rates, both in A-Plus and NDSA assessments, exceed the district and state averages, suggesting a relative strength in this subject area. However, the school's math proficiency rates, while still above the district average, are only on par with the statewide average, suggesting room for improvement in this subject.

Killdeer Elementary School faces some challenges, including a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 20.0% and per-student spending that is higher than the state average, though it's unclear how this funding is being utilized to support student outcomes. The school's student-teacher ratio of 12.1 to 1 is relatively low, which could be a positive factor in student learning.

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.

But it's important to note that these are approximations and are for general informational purposes only.
