Summary:

The 58656 zip code area is home to a single elementary school, Taylor-Richardton Elementary School, which serves students from kindergarten through sixth grade. While the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, it continues to offer a unique educational experience with a focus on small class sizes and individualized attention.

Academically, Taylor-Richardton Elementary School has a mixed performance compared to district and state averages. The school's proficiency rates in math are lower than the district and state, but its reading and science scores are on par or slightly higher. One area of concern is the school's declining statewide ranking, which has dropped from 64th out of 215 North Dakota elementary schools in 2022-2023 to 116th out of 216 in 2024-2025. Further investigation into the underlying factors behind this trend could help the school identify strategies to improve its overall academic performance.

In terms of student demographics, Taylor-Richardton Elementary School has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a larger population of students from low-income families. The school's per-student spending is also higher than the state average, which may suggest a focus on providing additional resources and support to its students. With a student-teacher ratio of 12.1, the school offers a small class size, potentially allowing for more individualized attention and support for each student.

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.
