Summary:

The 58853 zip code is home to a single high school, Eight Mile High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While this school is the only option for high school students in this area, its performance metrics suggest it is struggling to meet the academic needs of its student population.

Eight Mile High School is ranked 112 out of 134 school districts in North Dakota and has a 1 out of 5 star rating from SchoolDigger. Its 4-year graduation rate of 84.2% is below the state average, and its student proficiency rates in math (10%), reading (59.5%), and science (19.5%) all fall significantly short of North Dakota's averages.

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.
