Summary:
Roland has one listed high school, Roland High School, serving grades 9–12 with 339 students. With no other high school in the area list, families cannot compare local schools against one another. The most important concern is that the school’s 2025–2026 proficiency results were below state results in all four subjects, including math, where 7% were proficient compared with 25% statewide.
Roland High School’s strongest subject by its own score was U.S. History, at 24% proficient—equal to the district and 17 percentage points below the state’s 41%. Math was the lowest at 7%, 18 points below the state and 17 below the district. English Language Arts I was 22% versus 26% statewide, while science was 13% versus 30%. Graduation and attendance offer a more positive picture: the 2024–2025 graduation rate was 96%, 19 points above the state’s 78%, and 2025–2026 chronic absenteeism was 9%, 7 points below the state’s 16%.
Proficiency moved farther from the state’s level on average: the school’s simple average across four subjects fell from about 21% in 2024–2025 to about 17% in 2025–2026, while the state average was about 31% in both years; the gap widened from 11 to 14 points. ELA fell from 29% to 22%, math stayed at 7%, science slipped from 14% to 13%, and U.S. History dropped from 32% to 24%. SchoolDigger’s ranking also declined, from the 23rd percentile in 2023–2024 to the 16th in 2025–2026. Context measures include a student–teacher ratio of 11.6 and about 75% free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025; these figures describe the school, but do not explain its results.
