STANFORD 7-8

Stanford 7-8 is a Title I public middle school that is part of the Stanford K-12 Schools school district, located in Stanford, MT with about 12 students offering grade levels from 7th Grade to 8th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 2 teachers, Stanford 7-8 has a student/teacher ratio of about 6:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Stanford 7-8, located at 104 4th Avenue South in Stanford, Montana, serves as a focused middle school facility within the Stanford Public School District.

The school is situated in the heart of Judith Basin County, reflecting the values of a close-knit agricultural community where educators often prioritize personalized attention and strong student-teacher relationships.
