Summary:
Wapello Community School District has only one elementary school, Wapello Elementary School, which serves students from preschool through 5th grade. The school is located in Wapello, Iowa, a small community in the southeastern part of the state.
Analysis of Wapello Elementary School's data reveals that the school is consistently underperforming compared to state averages in academic proficiency. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student, these factors have not translated into improved academic outcomes. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are all below the state averages, and the school has been ranked in the bottom half of Iowa elementary schools for the past three years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
The Wapello Community School District as a whole is also ranked in the bottom half of Iowa school districts and has a 1-star rating, indicating that the challenges faced by Wapello Elementary School are not isolated to that school but may be reflective of broader issues within the district. The district and school leaders may need to closely examine the factors contributing to this underperformance and develop targeted strategies to improve academic outcomes for all students.
