Summary:
The Glendive Elementary district in Montana is home to two elementary schools: Jefferson School and Lincoln School. While the schools have similar financial resources and student-teacher ratios, they differ in their student demographics and academic performance.
Jefferson School has a higher percentage of White students (85.14%) compared to Lincoln School (87.65%), while Lincoln School has a higher percentage of Hispanic students (5.76%) compared to Jefferson School (7.09%). Additionally, Jefferson School has a stronger statewide ranking history, with a ranking of 78 out of 234 Montana elementary schools in the 2005-2006 school year, compared to Lincoln School's highest ranking of 203 out of 329 in the 2021-2022 school year.
However, Lincoln School outperforms the Glendive Elementary district and the state of Montana in terms of proficiency rates on the Montana State Tests for Mathematics, Reading, and Science, suggesting that factors beyond just funding and staffing may be contributing to their academic success.
