High Schools in Lewis Central Community School District

The Lewis Central Community School District has only one high school, Lewis Central Senior High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school consistently outperforms the state of Iowa in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science proficiency rates across multiple grade levels, suggesting it provides a strong academic foundation for its students.

With an enrollment of 927 students, Lewis Central Senior High School has a relatively favorable student-teacher ratio of 17:1, which may allow for more individualized attention and support. The school's spending per student of $12,326 is higher than the national average, which may contribute to its academic performance. However, the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the past few years, ranging from 110th to 160th out of 332-338 Iowa high schools, which warrants further investigation to understand the factors driving these changes.

While the school maintains a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, its racial demographics show a majority White student population, with Hispanic students making up the next largest group. The school's diversity is lower than the state average, and the free/reduced lunch rate of 34.41% indicates a significant portion of the student population comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, both of which are important factors to consider when analyzing the school's performance and resource allocation.
