What stands out at Leeds High School

Small campus with unusually lean teacher staffing

Leeds High School sits near the smaller end of the North Dakota enrollment distribution while also reporting a lower student-teacher ratio than most state schools. That pairing is consistent with a compact, teacher-dense setting, though small scale can limit the number of specialized courses or support roles a campus can sustain. The program and staffing sections below show whether the lean ratio extends beyond classroom teachers into broader student services.

Resource indicators are the standout signal

Leeds High School's economic-need measure is not at a state extreme, while its Resource Investment Index is. The campus outranks most North Dakota schools on the combined reported-resource measure, so the differentiator comes from staffing, counselor access, gifted programming, or attendance rather than from an unusually low-need population alone. The component breakdown identifies which inputs actually produce that placement.

Attendance is a relative strength

6.7% of Leeds High 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.

Leeds High School is a small high school in Leeds, North Dakota, enrolling 30 students.

Classes run notably small here: at 5:1, Leeds High School is leaner than roughly 95% of North Dakota schools and 58% under the state's 11.8:1 norm, more adult attention per pupil than most peers.

Its free-meal eligibility rate of 25.9% lands close to the North Dakota typical range, neither a high- nor low-need campus by this measure.

This is a small campus: fewer students than 91% of North Dakota schools, with 30 enrolled.

Its Resource Investment Index outscores 98% of the 498 North Dakota schools with a score on record, a top-tier result on this measure.

Its student body is predominantly White (93% of enrollment) (diversity index 13/100).

No Advanced Placement courses are reported for this campus in the federal data.
