At the middle school level, Lincoln Middle School stands out as the highest-ranked in the district, earning a 5-star rating and exceptional test scores. Several elementary schools, such as Amelia Earhart and Bay Farm, are also among the top-performing in the district.
However, the district also has some lower-performing schools, such as Nea Community Learning Center and Island High, which have significantly lower test scores and other performance indicators compared to the state and district averages. There also appears to be a correlation between socioeconomic status and school performance, with schools serving higher percentages of students from low-income families tending to have lower academic outcomes.
