Summary:
Milesville, South Dakota is home to a single school, Milesville Elementary - 08, which serves grades K-8 and has a total enrollment of 17 students. The school is part of the Haakon School District 27-1, which is ranked 92 out of 147 school districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Milesville Elementary - 08 has significantly lower test scores compared to the district and state averages in most grade levels and subject areas, with the exception of 5th grade where the school had 100% proficiency in English Language Arts (ELA) and Science. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 20.2% is much higher than the state average, which could be a contributing factor to the low test scores. With only 17 students, the school has a relatively small enrollment, which may impact the availability of resources and educational opportunities for students.
The school's spending per student of $13,003 is higher than the state average, but it's unclear if this additional funding is being effectively utilized to improve student outcomes. The school's 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and its district's low ranking suggest that there is room for improvement in the overall quality of education provided in Milesville. Further investigation into the school's resources, teaching practices, and community engagement may be necessary to identify the root causes of these challenges and develop strategies for improvement.
