Summary:
The 50632 zip code area is home to two schools - GMG Elementary School and GMG Secondary School, which serve students from kindergarten through 12th grade. While the schools share a district, they exhibit distinct characteristics in terms of academic performance, student demographics, and resource allocation.
GMG Secondary School stands out for its relatively strong academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts, where 83.3% of 11th graders were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 70.2%. In contrast, GMG Elementary School serves a student population with a high percentage (42.32%) of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage.
The GMG Community School District, which encompasses both schools, is ranked 263 out of 309 districts in Iowa and is rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger. This suggests that while GMG Secondary School has some areas of strength, the district as a whole may be underperforming compared to other districts in the state, and further analysis and targeted interventions may be warranted to support student success across the district.
