Summary:
The NICE Community School District has only one elementary school, Aspen Ridge Elementary School, which serves students from grades 3 through 7. Located in a predominantly White community, Aspen Ridge Elementary School has a diverse student population with representation from various racial and ethnic groups.
Academically, Aspen Ridge Elementary School has some areas of strength, with students performing well above the state average in 4th grade English Language Arts and 3rd grade Math. However, the school's proficiency rates in 6th and 7th grade English Language Arts and Math are below the state averages, indicating room for improvement. The school's overall ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 512 out of 1,344 schools in 2021-2022 to 641 out of 1,470 schools in 2022-2023, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.
In terms of resources, Aspen Ridge Elementary School appears to have adequate funding, with a per-student spending of $14,258 and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 14.7. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 21.9% for the 2022-2023 school year is an area of concern that may impact student achievement and should be addressed.
