Summary:
The Rocky Boy Elementary district in Montana is home to a single elementary school, the Rocky Boy School, which serves grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 416 students, the majority of whom are Native American (87.02%).
Despite the school's high per-student spending of $18,715, which is significantly above the state average, the Rocky Boy Elementary district has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Montana elementary schools, with the Rocky Boy School earning a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance is also significantly below state averages, with only 7.96% of students proficient or better in math and reading, and 8.33% in science, compared to state averages of 36.59%, 46.03%, and 37.03%, respectively.
The higher-than-average student-teacher ratio of 16.2 at the Rocky Boy School, coupled with the school's low academic outcomes, suggests that the students may not be receiving the individual attention and support they need to succeed. While the high spending per student indicates a significant investment in the school, the data highlights the need for a more comprehensive approach to address the unique challenges and needs of the predominantly Native American student population in the Rocky Boy Elementary district.
