Summary:
The city of Blue Springs, Nebraska has only one school in the data set - Southern Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 and has 208 students. The school's academic performance, as measured by state assessment scores, is generally below the Nebraska state averages, with the exception of its strong performance in 5th grade science. However, the school's student-to-teacher ratio is lower than the state average, and it spends a relatively high amount of $19,569 per student.
Demographically, Southern Elementary School's student population is predominantly white (90.87%), with smaller percentages of minority students. This lack of diversity may be an area for the school to address. Additionally, the school is part of the Southern School District 1, which is ranked 208th out of 212 districts in Nebraska and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. The district's low performance may impact the resources and support available to Southern Elementary School.
Overall, while Southern Elementary School has some areas of strength, such as its science performance and low student-to-teacher ratio, the school's academic achievement in other subjects, as well as the broader challenges facing the district, suggest that there is room for improvement in the quality of education provided to students in Blue Springs, Nebraska.
