Middle Schools in Todd County School District 66-1

Summary:

The Todd County School District 66-1 in South Dakota is home to two middle schools: Todd County Middle School - 10 and Todd County Achievement Middle School - 18. Both schools face significant challenges, with low performance metrics and poor statewide rankings.

According to the data, neither school stands out as a high performer. Todd County Middle School - 10 ranked 230 out of 246 South Dakota middle schools in the 2024-2025 school year, with a 0 out of 5 SchoolDigger star rating. Todd County Achievement Middle School - 18 fared even worse, ranking 238 out of 246 and also earning a 0 out of 5 star rating. Both schools struggle with low proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics, well below the state averages.

The data also reveals that both schools face challenges related to student demographics and resource allocation. Both schools have a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 100%. Additionally, Todd County Achievement Middle School - 18 has an extremely small enrollment of only 14 students, raising questions about the viability and sustainability of such a small school. The district appears to be allocating significant resources to these schools, with high per-student spending and student-teacher ratios, but the outcomes do not reflect this investment, suggesting a need for a more targeted approach to address the schools' challenges.
