The school portfolio breaks down into 1 high schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 125 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Hill County County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $18,500 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 10.9% local, 32.9% state, and 56.2% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $88,714 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts.
a 125:1 student-counselor ratio that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 100.0% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 6.4% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools.
Rocky Boy High School accounts for 100.0% of all Rocky Boy H S student enrollment
That concentration — well above the 8.4% national median for largest-entity share — means Rocky Boy H S-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Rocky Boy H S student-counselor ratio is 125:1 — low (typically associated with meeting or exceeding the American School Counselor Association (ASCA) recommended 250:1 benchmark, which correlates with stronger college and career counseling capacity)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment — districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
Rocky Boy H S chronic absenteeism rate is 100.0% — high (typically associated with higher-than-average disruption; recent CRDC data showed elevated rates persisting after pandemic-era schooling changes)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason — illness, family obligations, or disengagement Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
