Dubuque Community School District

The Dubuque Community School District in Iowa consists of 18 schools, including 12 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 3 high schools. The district serves a diverse student population and demonstrates a wide range of academic performance across its schools.

Several schools stand out as high-performing, such as Bryant Elementary School, which consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, and Carver Elementary School and John Kennedy Elementary School, which also perform exceptionally well. On the other hand, some schools, like Prescott Elementary School and Audubon Elementary School, consistently rank among the lowest-performing in the state.

The district's data reveals significant performance gaps between the highest and lowest-performing schools, as well as a correlation between a school's socioeconomic status and its academic achievement. Additionally, the middle schools in the district show more variability in their performance compared to the high schools and elementary schools. The Dubuque Online School also demonstrates lower proficiency rates compared to the district and state averages, suggesting the need for additional support and resources for students in the virtual learning environment.
