Summary:
The city of Rockford, Iowa is home to two schools: RRMR Elementary School and Rockford Junior-Senior High School, both part of the Rudd-Rockford-Marble Rk Community School District. While the elementary school has a higher percentage of white students, the high school has a lower student-teacher ratio. Both schools serve a significant population of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating socioeconomic challenges in the community.
Academically, the schools have mixed performance on state assessments. RRMR Elementary School generally scores below the state average in English Language Arts and Math, while Rockford Junior-Senior High School has inconsistent results, with some grade levels performing above the state average and others below. The difference in spending per student and student-teacher ratios between the two schools suggests that resources may not be evenly distributed across the district.
Overall, the data provides insights into the strengths and areas for improvement within the Rockford school system. While the schools face socioeconomic challenges, targeted interventions and a closer examination of resource allocation could help address the performance gaps and ensure more equitable outcomes for all students.
