Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn Community School District


Summary:

The Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn Community School District operates three schools: Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn Elementary School, Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn High School, and Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn Middle School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade in the Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn area.

Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn Elementary School stands out for its consistently high performance on ISASP tests, with 3rd and 4th-grade students scoring well above the state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. The school is ranked in the top 15% of Iowa elementary schools and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.8, which may contribute to its strong academic outcomes. Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn High School also demonstrates exceptional performance, with 10th and 11th-grade students scoring significantly higher than the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. The high school is ranked in the top 10% of Iowa high schools and has a low student-teacher ratio of 10.6, which may be a factor in its academic success.

The schools in the Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn Community School District consistently outperform the state averages on ISASP tests, with many grade levels scoring over 80% proficient or better in English Language Arts and Mathematics. The district's investment in education, as evidenced by the high spending per student, may also contribute to the strong academic performance of the schools. However, the schools have a predominantly white student population, and exploring ways to increase racial diversity and ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students could be an area for the district to focus on.
