While there are no clear standout schools in this single-school district, a closer examination of Langford Area Middle School - 03 reveals a mixed performance. The school is ranked 112 out of 246 middle schools in South Dakota and has a 3-star rating, but its chronic absenteeism rate of 20.2% is higher than the state average. Academically, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts are below state and district averages, while its Mathematics and 8th-grade Science results are more varied, with some grades performing better than the comparisons.
Despite these challenges, Langford Area Middle School - 03 has a relatively low free and reduced-price lunch rate of 21.95%, indicating a relatively low-income student population.
