High Schools in Grand Island Public Schools

Summary:

The Grand Island Public Schools district in Nebraska has only one high school, Grand Island Senior High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance has been consistently low, with a declining statewide ranking and underperforming academic metrics compared to other Nebraska high schools.

Grand Island Senior High School has a 0-star rating and ranks 159 out of 168 Nebraska high schools for the 2023-2024 school year, a significant drop from its previous rankings. The school's four-year graduation rate of 88.1% is slightly below the state average, and it has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1%. Proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are significantly lower than the state averages, indicating that students are struggling academically.

Despite the relatively high spending per student of $15,173, the school's performance metrics do not reflect a commensurate level of academic achievement. This suggests that the resources may not be effectively utilized or targeted to address the school's specific needs. The high percentage of students (64.6%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch also indicates that the school may be facing challenges related to socioeconomic factors and student engagement.
