What stands out at Kensal High School
A combined-grade campus has a different support burden
Kensal High School serves a combined grade span rather than a conventional elementary, middle, or high-school band. That structure can require the same campus to cover transitions, counseling needs, and programs for students at substantially different developmental stages, so a single staffing ratio deserves more caution than it would at a narrower-grade school. Federal totals show the available people and programs, but not how those resources are divided among grade levels.
Kensal High School is a small combined-grade school in Kensal, North Dakota, enrolling 1 students.
This is a small campus: fewer students than 99% of North Dakota schools, with 1 enrolled.
Its Resource Investment Index trails 95% of the 498 North Dakota schools with a score on record, one of the lower results on this measure.
Among Kensal's public schools, it stands alongside Kensal Elementary School (28 students): Kensal High School is smaller than that campus by headcount.
Its district, Kensal 19, also runs Kensal Elementary School (28 students).
