How Miami School compares with Montana and U.S. medians
What stands out at Miami School
Miami School is a mid-sized combined-grade school in Conrad, Montana, enrolling 38 students.
At 12.7:1, its student-teacher ratio sits close to the Montana median, within a few percentage points of the 11.8:1 state norm, neither notably crowded nor notably small.
Enrollment of 38 puts it in the smaller third of Montana schools by headcount.
Its Resource Investment Index lands in the upper third of 826 scored Montana schools.
Its student body is predominantly White (100% of enrollment) (diversity index 0/100).
10.5% of students were chronically absent in the 2021-22 collection, in line with the post-pandemic national range.
The surrounding Miami Elem spends $9,313 per pupil, 52% below the Montana average, a leaner-resourced district than most.
Its district draws 19.4% of revenue from federal sources, an above-typical federal share that tends to track a higher-need student population.
Among Conrad's public schools, it stands alongside Meadowlark School (144 students): Miami School is smaller than that campus by headcount and runs leaner classes (12.7:1 vs 14.4:1).
Miami Elem operates only this one school, so Miami School has no district-mates to compare against locally.
