Colo-NESCO Community School District


Summary:

The Colo-NESCO Community School District in Iowa consists of two schools: Colo-NESCO Middle/High School and Colo-Nesco Elementary School. The data analysis reveals that Colo-NESCO Middle/High School is the standout school in the district, consistently outperforming the state averages on standardized tests and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Colo-NESCO Middle/High School has a strong academic record, with several grade levels achieving over 80% proficiency in English Language Arts and Mathematics on the ISASP tests. In contrast, Colo-Nesco Elementary School's performance is generally on par with or slightly below the state averages, resulting in a lower 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The middle/high school also has a lower percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch compared to the elementary school, suggesting a more affluent student population.

Despite the disparity in statewide rankings, the district appears to allocate resources evenly across the two schools, as evidenced by the similar spending per student and student-teacher ratios. This consistency in funding and resources indicates that the district is committed to providing a quality education for all students, and the factors contributing to the performance gap between the middle/high school and the elementary school may warrant further investigation to ensure all students are receiving the support they need to succeed.
