Marshalltown Community School District


Summary:

The Marshalltown Community School District serves a diverse student population across 10 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools. The district faces significant challenges, with high rates of economic disadvantage and uneven academic performance across its schools.

While some standout schools, like Franklin Elementary School and J.C. Hoglan Elementary School, demonstrate stronger academic performance, the district as a whole struggles to meet state averages on standardized assessments. Marshalltown High School stands out for its diverse student population, with a majority Hispanic enrollment and significant representation of other minority groups.

The data highlights the importance of considering the broader context and challenges faced by the district, such as high rates of economic disadvantage, when evaluating school performance. By identifying and replicating the successful practices of the higher-performing schools, the district may be able to raise the overall academic achievement of its students and address the unique needs of its diverse learners.
