West Branch Community School District


Summary:

The West Branch Community School District consists of 3 schools: 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district's schools have consistently strong academic performance, with West Branch Middle School and West Branch High School ranking in the top half of Iowa schools and outperforming the state average on standardized tests, particularly in English Language Arts.

West Branch Middle School stands out with its consistent top-half ranking and high proficiency rates on ISASP tests, which may be attributed to its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.5. Similarly, West Branch High School excels in English Language Arts and maintains a low student-teacher ratio of 13.1, contributing to its academic success. In contrast, Hoover Elementary School has more mixed test scores, with some grades performing above the state average and others below.

The district's schools have a predominantly white student population, with minority representation being relatively low. The free and reduced lunch rates across the schools range from 23.51% to 26.46%, indicating a moderate level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The district's investment in resources, with higher-than-average spending per student and low student-teacher ratios, may be a factor in the overall academic performance of its schools.
