Bridgeport Public Schools

Summary:

The Bridgeport Public Schools district in Nebraska consists of two schools: Bridgeport Elementary School and Bridgeport High School. Based on the available data, Bridgeport Elementary School appears to be the standout performer, consistently ranking higher among Nebraska elementary schools and outperforming the district and state averages on standardized tests.

In contrast, Bridgeport High School has struggled, with a lower 2-star rating from SchoolDigger in the past three school years. The high school's test scores, particularly in Mathematics and Science, are below the district and state averages. This suggests that the district may need to focus on improving the high school's academic performance.

Both schools face challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates of 21.1% in the 2023-2024 school year. Additionally, the district appears to allocate more funding per student at the elementary school level ($21,375) compared to the high school ($20,367), which may contribute to the performance gap between the two schools. The student-teacher ratio is also slightly higher at the elementary school (13.2) compared to the high school (11.7), which may be a factor in the school's academic performance.
