Summary:

The 57030 zip code is home to a single high school, Garretson High School - 01, which serves students in grades 9-12. Based on the available data, this school does not appear to be a standout performer, ranking 126 out of 166 South Dakota high schools for the 2024-2025 school year and earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Garretson High School - 01 has a four-year graduation rate of 86.4% and a dropout rate of 2.6% for the 2024-2025 school year. However, the school's performance on standardized tests is significantly below the state average, particularly in mathematics, where only 20.83% of 11th-grade students were proficient in 2024-2025, compared to the state average of 36.27%. The school's spending per student of $12,199 in 2023-2024 is higher than the state average, but it's unclear if this additional funding is being used effectively to improve student outcomes.

Overall, the data suggests that Garretson High School - 01 may be facing challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. The school's low statewide ranking and 1-star rating indicate that it is not a standout performer, and its below-average test scores, especially in mathematics, suggest a need for improvement in the school's curriculum and instructional practices. While the school serves a relatively affluent population, with only 10.29% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, the lack of educational options in the 57030 zip code may limit the choices available to families in the area.
