Summary:
The 56277 zip code area is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Bird Island-Olivia-Lake Lillian school district. While the district has some standout performers, the data reveals disparities in academic achievement across the different grade levels.
The clear standout in the area is BOLD-Bird Island Elementary, which consistently outperforms district and state averages on standardized tests, with 64.38% of students proficient or better in Math and 50.68% in Reading. This success is likely due to the school's low student-teacher ratio and its 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. In contrast, BOLD Senior High School struggles with Math proficiency, with only 15.91% of 11th-grade students meeting or exceeding standards, compared to 34.99% statewide. However, the high school boasts an impressive 93.6% four-year graduation rate and a low 4.2% dropout rate.
The data also reveals some concerning disparities within the district. While BOLD-Bird Island Elementary excels, the middle and high schools show more mixed results, with some grade levels and subject areas underperforming compared to state averages. This suggests the need for a closer examination of the district's curriculum, teaching practices, and resource allocation to ensure more consistent academic success across all grade levels.
