What this school's NCES data tells you

Park City High School reports 112 enrolled students to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) alongside 9.0 full-time-equivalent teachers, producing a 11.3:1 student-teacher ratio. That figure sits 7% below the Montana state mean of 12.1:1, signalling more teacher attention per pupil than the state benchmark. Against the national 2024-25 average of 15.7:1, it is 28% lower, a useful calibration for families comparing districts across state lines.

Counselor coverage works out to roughly 373 students per counselor, above the ASCA-recommended ceiling of 250:1. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 32.1% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.

On the finance side, the surrounding Park City H S spends $14,627 per pupil district-wide, below the Montana average of $19,282 and below the national average of $16,593. Revenue comes 44.1% from local sources (property taxes), 55.2% from the state, and 0.7% from federal programs per the NCES F-33 finance survey. Taken together, these measurements produce a Resource Investment Index of 28/100 (F), calculated from 5 distinct NCES and CRDC indicators measuring resource allocation rather than academic outcomes.
