Tripp-Delmont High School - 01

Summary:

Tripp-Delmont High School - 01 is a small public high school in Tripp, South Dakota, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of just 45 as of the 2022-2023 school year. While the school has a predominantly White student body, it faces significant academic challenges compared to the state and nearby schools.

Tripp-Delmont High School - 01's academic performance has declined over the years, with only 40% of 11th-grade students proficient or better in English Language Arts, 20% in Mathematics, and 20% in Science - all well below the state averages. The school's statewide ranking has dropped from 2 out of 144 schools in 2008-2009 to 129 out of 138 schools in the current year. Additionally, the school serves a higher proportion of students from lower-income families, with 20-40% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the higher spending per student at Tripp-Delmont High School - 01 compared to nearby schools like Menno High School - 01, Wagner High School - 01, and Bon Homme High School - 01, the school's academic outcomes remain relatively low.

One potential strength of Tripp-Delmont High School - 01 is its low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 4.7 to 8.1 over the past three school years, suggesting a more personalized learning environment. However, this advantage does not seem to be translating into improved academic performance, and further analysis is needed to understand how the school's resources are being utilized to support student success. The school's declining academic performance, socioeconomic challenges, and inefficient resource allocation are areas of concern that warrant further investigation and targeted interventions to address these issues and improve outcomes for the students of Tripp-Delmont High School - 01.

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.
