Summary:

Zip code 57763 has three public schools in Oelrichs School District 23-3, serving PK–5, grades 6–8, and grades 9–12; enrollments range from 25 to 55 students. Chronic absenteeism is a major concern at the two schools with reported figures: it was 69% at Oelrichs Elementary and 63% at Oelrichs Junior High, versus 20% statewide. Most importantly, reported 2025–26 ELA proficiency was 36% at Elementary and 18% at Junior High, both below the state’s 49%—by 13 and 31 percentage points, respectively.

Among the schools with 2025–26 all-grade ELA results, Elementary led Junior High by 19 percentage points, though it too remained below the state. The 2025–26 High School result is suppressed, so it cannot be placed in that comparison. In 2024–25, Oelrichs High School had the highest ELA result of the three at 33%, compared with 19% at Elementary and 11% at Junior High; however, High School’s math and science results were both 0%. Elementary had the highest reported math result that year, at 14%. Across all three schools, the simple average was 21% in ELA and 7% in math, compared with statewide rates of 51% and 43%.

Available scores improved between 2024–25 and 2025–26: Elementary ELA rose 17 percentage points and Junior High ELA rose 7 points, while Elementary math rose 4 points. SchoolDigger ranked Elementary in the 9th statewide percentile in 2025–26; its 2024–25 rankings placed High School in the 11th percentile and Junior High in the 8th. The 2024–25 student-teacher ratios were 9.6 at Elementary, 8.8 at Junior High, and 6.9 at High School; these figures do not line up consistently with test results. For 2024–25, Elementary reported 6% directly certified for free meals and was marked as likely to serve free meals to all students; Junior High and High School reported Community Eligibility, meaning all students receive free meals. These are different measures and should not be used to rank schools. High School’s 2025–26 test results are suppressed, and small enrollments mean results may reflect small tested groups.
