Best Public Schools in Creighton, NE

Summary:

The city of Creighton, Nebraska is home to two schools: Creighton Elementary School and Creighton Community High School, both part of the Creighton Community Public Schools district. While the elementary school has a strong focus on science education, the high school has a history of consistent academic performance, ranking in the top half of Nebraska high schools.

Creighton Elementary School stands out for its exceptional 5th grade NSCAS/Science proficiency rates, with 81% of students scoring proficient or better compared to the state average of 76%. Additionally, the elementary school outperforms the state average in 3rd and 6th grade English Language Arts, as well as 3rd, 5th, and 6th grade Mathematics. With a student-teacher ratio of 10.7, the school appears to prioritize individualized attention for its 175 students.

In contrast, Creighton Community High School has a strong overall performance, consistently ranking in the top half of Nebraska high schools and earning 3-4 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger. The high school's 115 students perform on par with the state average in 11th grade ACT English Language Arts, and the school's low student-teacher ratio of 7.7 suggests a focus on personalized learning. However, both schools have a lack of racial diversity, with over 87% and 90% white student populations, respectively, which may be an area for the district to address.
