How Maddock Elementary School compares with North Dakota and U.S. medians
What stands out at Maddock Elementary School
Teacher staffing is the clearest operational strength
Maddock Elementary School's enrollment is not at an extreme, but its student-teacher ratio is: it reports fewer students per teacher than most North Dakota schools. This is the most distinctive scale-adjusted signal in the federal record. It should be read as staffing capacity, not class size or an academic outcome; the page separately reports attendance, program access, demographics, and district finance so a single favorable ratio does not become an unsupported overall rating.
Higher need paired with broader reported resources
Maddock Elementary School serves a higher-need student population than most North Dakota campuses while its Resource Investment Index still lands in the state's upper tier. That combination is more informative than either figure alone: reported staffing and program capacity are comparatively strong despite a funding context that often carries greater service demands. It does not prove equal outcomes, but it identifies a campus whose federal resource signals are not simply tracking a lower-need intake.
Attendance is a relative strength
4.2% of Maddock 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.
Maddock Elementary School is a mid-sized combined-grade school in Maddock, North Dakota, enrolling 96 students.
Class sizes run a bit leaner than typical: 8:1 puts it in the smaller third of North Dakota schools by student-teacher ratio.

Among 77 similarly sized, similarly resourced-need North Dakota schools statewide, it ranks #6, a top-tier result once campus size and economic need are matched.
Its student body is predominantly White (92% of enrollment) (diversity index 16/100).
