Best Public Schools in Anita, IA


Summary:

The city of Anita, Iowa is home to 4 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the CAM Community School District. The district is ranked 273 out of 309 school districts in Iowa and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Among the schools, CAM Junior/Senior High School stands out with the highest test scores across various subjects and grade levels, the lowest student-teacher ratio, and the highest spending per student at $14,388. In contrast, the Iowa Connections Academy Elementary has the most diverse student population and the highest percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at 53.22%, but its test scores are mixed compared to the district and state averages.

The data suggests performance differences between the virtual schools (Iowa Connections Academy) and the traditional public school (CAM Junior/Senior High School), with the virtual schools generally underperforming. Additionally, there appears to be a relationship between higher spending per student and better overall school performance, as well as a potential impact of socioeconomic factors on student outcomes, though the racial diversity of the student population does not necessarily correlate with academic achievement.
