Summary:
ZIP code 58733 has one listed school, Des Lacs-Burlington High School, which serves grades 7–12 and enrolls 294 students. In 2025–2026, its All Grades proficiency rates were above North Dakota’s in math (55–63% versus 54%), reading (85–93% versus 57%), and science (55–63% versus 39%). Reading is the clearest standout, at 28–36 percentage points above the state rate.
Des Lacs-Burlington is the area’s only listed school, so it is the local leader and trailer by default; there is no second school for a meaningful in-area comparison. Compared with its district, United 7, the school’s 2025–2026 reading rate is 14–22 points higher, while its math rate is 11–19 points lower; the science bands are the same, so which result is higher cannot be determined. The school’s 10th Grade results are also above the state in all three subjects: 9–17 points in math, 33–41 in reading, and 23–31 in science. Its 2025–2026 graduation rate rounds to 96%, matching the district and exceeding the state’s 87% by 9 points.
Results improved against the state in all three All Grades subjects between the two years reported: math moved from 2 points below the state to 1–9 points above it, reading from 19 points above to 28–36 above, and science from 6 points above to 16–24 above. SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking also rose, from 26th of 122 schools and 4 stars in 2023–2024 to 10th of 129 and 5 stars in 2025–2026; its percentile increased from 79th to 92nd. For context, the school’s 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 12.5, and 16% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025; these figures describe the school but do not provide a basis for comparing schools in the ZIP code.
