Best Public Schools in Council Bluffs, IA


Summary:

The Council Bluffs, Iowa area is home to 17 schools across two school districts - the Council Bluffs Community School District and the Lewis Central Community School District. The schools serve students from elementary through high school, with a mix of strong performers and lower-performing institutions.

Several schools stand out in the data, including Lewis Central Senior High School, which consistently ranks in the top half of Iowa high schools, and two elementary schools - College View Elementary and Hoover Elementary - that have also performed exceptionally well, ranking in the top half and top third of Iowa elementary schools, respectively. These higher-performing schools tend to have higher per-student spending and lower student-teacher ratios.

However, the data also reveals a significant gap in academic performance between the top-performing schools and the lower-performing schools, such as Franklin Elementary, Longfellow Elementary, and Bloomer Elementary. This disparity suggests that students in the Council Bluffs area may have vastly different educational experiences depending on which school they attend, and that district-level factors, such as funding and policies, may play a significant role in shaping the quality of education at the individual school level.
