Anselmo-Merna Public Schools


Summary:

The Anselmo-Merna Public Schools district in Nebraska is home to two schools: Anselmo-Merna Elementary-Merna and Anselmo-Merna High School. These schools serve students from elementary through high school grades and are located in a predominantly white, rural community.

Anselmo-Merna High School stands out for its exceptional performance on state assessments, with 72% of 7th and 8th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts and Mathematics, outperforming the state averages. The high school also had a higher percentage of students proficient or better in ACT Mathematics (42.11%) compared to the state average (26.23%). In contrast, Anselmo-Merna Elementary-Merna has a relatively high percentage of 4th grade students (63%) proficient or better in Mathematics, exceeding the state average of 58%.

While both schools have low student-teacher ratios, the Anselmo-Merna Public Schools district also spends significantly more per student, especially at the high school level ($24,739 per student). This high spending could indicate a commitment to investing in student education, but it's important to analyze how this translates to student outcomes. Additionally, the district's student population is predominantly white, which may be an area for the district to consider addressing in terms of diversity and inclusion.
