Summary:
The Superior Public Schools district in Nebraska has only one high school, Superior Senior High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the school has a relatively high spending per student of $21,619, its performance has been declining in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 162 out of 202 schools in 2021-2022 to 185 out of 215 schools in 2022-2023.
Superior Senior High School's proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science have shown some fluctuation, with a notable decline in English Language Arts and Science proficiency from 2023-2024 to 2022-2023. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1%, which is significantly higher than the state average. This could be a contributing factor to the school's declining performance.
Furthermore, over 50% of students at Superior Senior High School are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating that the school may be facing socioeconomic challenges that could impact student achievement. Despite the higher spending per student, it's unclear if this is translating into improved student outcomes. The school's leadership and the Superior Public Schools district may need to closely examine these issues and implement targeted interventions to improve student performance and outcomes.
