Martensdale-St Marys Community School District


Summary:

The Martensdale-St Marys Community School District in Iowa is home to two schools: Martensdale Elementary School and Martensdale-St Marys Junior-Senior High School. While Martensdale Elementary School consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, the performance of Martensdale-St Marys Junior-Senior High School has been more mixed in recent years.

Martensdale Elementary School stands out as a high-performing institution, with consistently strong test scores across multiple subject areas and grade levels. The school has maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating its overall excellence. In contrast, Martensdale-St Marys Junior-Senior High School has seen a decline in its performance, particularly in Mathematics and Science, with test scores lagging behind state averages in some grade levels.

The data also reveals differences in socioeconomic factors between the two schools, with the junior-senior high school having a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Additionally, the higher spending per student at the high school level may suggest a focus on resource allocation to support these students. These factors, along with potential challenges in the transition from elementary to high school, could be areas for the district to explore in order to ensure the continued academic success of all students.
