Boone Central Schools

The Boone Central Schools district in Nebraska consists of three schools: Boone Central Elementary-Albion, Boone Central High School, and Boone Central Middle School. The district serves students from elementary through high school, with a predominantly white student population and varying levels of economic disadvantage among the schools.

Boone Central Elementary-Albion stands out as a consistent high performer, ranking 174 out of 459 Nebraska elementary schools and outperforming the state average in 4th-grade English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency. In contrast, Boone Central High School has a higher percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients, but it significantly outperforms the state average in 11th-grade English Language Arts proficiency.

While the schools generally perform well on state assessments, Boone Central Middle School has faced some challenges, with its overall ranking fluctuating between a 1-star and 3-star rating in recent years. The district's varying free and reduced lunch rates suggest different levels of economic disadvantage, which could have implications for resource allocation and targeted support within the schools.
