Summary:
Rattan’s three public schools serve students from prekindergarten through grade 12: Rattan Elementary School (PK–6), Rattan Junior High School (grades 7–8), and Rattan High School (grades 9–12). Their 2025–2026 results differ considerably by subject and school: the high school is strongest in English language arts (ELA), while junior high leads in mathematics and science. Taken together, the schools’ mathematics proficiency averaged 12%, 13 points below the state’s 25%.
Rattan Junior High School stands out in mathematics at 18% and science at 39%; its science result was 9 points above the state’s 30%. Rattan High School leads in ELA, with 28% proficient—2 points above the state—but its mathematics and science results were each 4%. Rattan Elementary School had 26% proficiency in science and 14–15% in ELA and mathematics. The high school’s ELA result was 13 points above the elementary school’s, while junior high’s science result was 35 points above the high school’s. No school leads across every subject.
Recent results show particular concern at the high school: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, its proficiency fell 11 points in mathematics, 8 in science, and 8 in U.S. History, while ELA slipped 2 points. SchoolDigger’s high-school ranking also moved from 245 of 432 schools in 2023–2024 to 398 of 462 in 2025–2026. In 2024–2025, student-teacher ratios ranged from 8.8 at junior high to 11.8 at elementary. The schools’ 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligible measures were 62%–77%; these are useful context, not explanations for achievement. All-grades results combine schools serving different grades, so they are not grade-adjusted comparisons.
