Summary:
ZIP code 57025 has one middle school, Elk Point-Jefferson Middle School - 03, serving grades 6–8 and 151 students. With no other middle schools in the list, families can compare its results with district and state figures, but not with nearby schools. The clearest takeaway is that results differ by grade and subject: eighth-grade math and science are strong relative to the state, while seventh-grade ELA is a notable weakness.
The school’s strongest latest results are eighth-grade math and science: 59% met the math benchmark, 16 percentage points above the state, and 52% met the science benchmark, 12 points above the state. Its clearest shortfall is seventh-grade ELA, where 39% met the benchmark, 14 points below the state’s 53%. All-grades results show the same broad contrast: math was 48%, 4 points above the state, while ELA was 43%, 6 points below. Eighth-grade ELA was slightly above the state, at 52% versus 52%—a 1-point advantage using the unrounded figures.
Results fell in both all-grades subjects from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: ELA declined 3 points and math 6 points. The math advantage over the state narrowed from 10 points to 4, while the ELA gap widened from 5 points to 6. Eighth-grade science also declined, from 56% to 52%, but stayed above the state; its lead narrowed from 14 points to 12. SchoolDigger rates the school three stars and ranks it 76th of 151, at the 50th percentile; those figures do not by themselves show a comparable year-to-year trend. Other context includes a student-teacher ratio of 16.2 in 2024–2025 and 19% free/reduced lunch eligible that year. Chronic absenteeism was 12% in 2025–2026, below the state’s 20% but above the Elk Point-Jefferson School District 61-7 rate of 10%.
