Bloomfield Community Schools

The Bloomfield Community Schools district in Nebraska is home to two schools - Bloomfield Junior-Senior High School and Bloomfield Elementary School. While both schools demonstrate strong academic performance, Bloomfield Elementary School stands out as a high-achieving institution, consistently ranking in the top 20% of Nebraska elementary schools over the past three years.

Bloomfield Elementary School boasts exceptional test scores, with proficiency rates significantly higher than the state average in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. For instance, 94% of 3rd graders and 90% of 5th and 6th graders were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state averages of 58%, 65%, and 57%, respectively. This academic excellence is reflected in the school's 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and its ranking as the 18th best elementary school in Nebraska.

While both schools have a majority white student population, Bloomfield Elementary School has a more diverse student body, with higher percentages of African American and Hispanic students compared to Bloomfield Junior-Senior High School. Additionally, the high school spends approximately $2,700 more per student than the elementary school, which may be due to the increased resources required for secondary education. Both schools, however, maintain small class sizes, with Bloomfield Junior-Senior High School having a lower student-teacher ratio of 9.9 compared to 11.0 at Bloomfield Elementary School.
