Florence-Carlton Elementary School boasts relatively high reading proficiency, with 48.5% of students performing at or above grade level, compared to the district and state averages. The school has also seen consistent improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 228th out of 356 Montana elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 149th out of 332 in 2022-2023.

Across the three schools, the student population is predominantly white, ranging from 88.76% to 91.58%.

As the Florence-Carlton K-12 School District continues to work towards improving educational outcomes, addressing the mathematics proficiency gap and promoting diversity within the student population could be areas of focus.
