Troy High School

Summary:

Troy High School is a public high school serving 128 students in grades 9-12 in the small town of Troy, Montana. The school has a predominantly White student population, with over 89% of students identifying as White.

Troy High School has shown mixed academic performance in recent years. In the current 2022-2023 school year, the school's proficiency rates in Mathematics (33.33%), Reading (58.33%), and Science (38.46%) were all above the state averages. However, in the previous two school years, Troy High School's proficiency rates were significantly lower than the state averages, particularly in Mathematics and Science. This fluctuation in academic performance is reflected in the school's ranking, which ranged from 33rd out of 124 Montana high schools in 2022-2023 to 100th out of 114 and 138 high schools in the previous two years, respectively. Compared to Libby High School, Troy High School has a lower student-teacher ratio, ranging from 12.2 to 13.7 students per teacher over the past three school years, while Libby High School had a ratio of 17.7 in the current year. Additionally, Troy High School spent $15,901 per student in the 2018-2019 school year, significantly higher than the $11,260 spent per student at Libby K-12 Schools during the same year.

The fluctuations in Troy High School's academic performance and its predominantly White student population compared to the more diverse student body at Libby High School are noteworthy. The higher spending per student at Troy High School could suggest a greater investment in resources and support for the students, but it is important to analyze how this additional funding is being utilized and its impact on student outcomes. Continued monitoring and targeted interventions may be necessary to address the school's challenges and capitalize on its strengths to provide a high-quality education for all its students.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
