How Hope Page Elementary School compares with North Dakota and U.S. medians
What stands out at Hope Page Elementary School
Scale and staffing sit near the state mainstream
Hope Page Elementary School is neither an extreme outlier in enrollment nor in student-teacher ratio among North Dakota schools. Its profile therefore turns on the other dimensions rather than on scale alone: economic need, counselor coverage, program access, attendance, and district finance. This middle placement is useful because it prevents the campus from being mislabeled as unusually large, small, crowded, or teacher-dense when the federal comparison does not support that claim.
Need and resources require a component-level read
Hope Page Elementary School falls within the wide middle of the North Dakota distribution on both free-meal eligibility and the Resource Investment Index. Neither measure supplies an honest headline by itself. The useful distinctions are in the components: classroom staffing, counselor availability, attendance, gifted-program access, and district spending. Those fields can pull in opposite directions even when the overall percentile looks ordinary.
Attendance is a relative strength
8.2% of Hope Page Elementary School students were chronically absent in the 2021-22 civil-rights collection. On its face, that is a comparatively low historical rate, though this page does not treat it as a current national benchmark or guarantee current-year performance. Here, attendance is a more distinctive signal than the presence or absence of any single specialist role.
Hope Page Elementary School is a lower-poverty, mid-sized combined-grade school in Page, North Dakota, enrolling 97 students.
At 12.1:1, its student-teacher ratio sits close to the North Dakota median, within a few percentage points of the 11.8:1 state norm, neither notably crowded nor notably small.
Comparatively few students face economic hardship here, 9.7% free-meal eligibility runs 66% below the North Dakota average.
Enrollment of 97 puts it in the smaller third of North Dakota schools by headcount.
Its Resource Investment Index sits near the middle of the pack among 498 scored North Dakota schools.
Against 70 statewide peers matched on enrollment and economic need, it ranks mid-pack at #40.
Its student body is predominantly White (94% of enrollment) (diversity index 12/100).
Attendance holds up well here: only 8.2% of students were chronically absent, below the typical post-pandemic national figure.
The surrounding Hope-Page 85 spends $23,041 per pupil, 25% above the North Dakota average, a better-resourced district than most.
Its district, Hope-Page 85, also runs Hope Page High School (65 students).
