Summary:
Eagle Grove Community School District has only one high school, Eagle Grove High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom tier of Iowa high schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance compared to other schools in the state.
Academically, Eagle Grove High School's proficiency rates in ISASP (Iowa Statewide Assessment of Student Progress) are below the state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics across all grade levels. For example, in 10th grade Mathematics, the school's proficiency rate was 37.5%, compared to the state average of 66%. The school's performance in Science for 10th grade was also below the state average, with a 40.3% proficiency rate compared to the state's 59.5%.
Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $15,716 and a low student-teacher ratio of 11.8, the data suggests that the school is facing challenges in providing quality education to its diverse student population, which includes 60.54% White, 35.12% Hispanic, and 4.01% two or more races. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, at 61.87% in the 2022-2023 school year, indicating a community with high levels of economic disadvantage.
