Clarkson Public Schools

The Clarkson Public Schools district in Nebraska consists of two schools: Clarkson Junior-Senior High School and Clarkson Elementary School. The high school consistently performs above the state average in key academic areas, while the elementary school has shown some fluctuations in its performance over the years.

Clarkson Junior-Senior High School stands out for its strong test scores, particularly in ACT/English Language Arts, ACT/Mathematics, and NSCAS/English Language Arts for grades 7 and 8. The school maintains a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, placing it in the top half of Nebraska high schools. In contrast, Clarkson Elementary School has seen its SchoolDigger rating range from 1 to 4 stars, but it still outperforms the state averages in NSCAS/English Language Arts for grade 4 and NSCAS/Mathematics for grade 6.

Both schools in the Clarkson Public Schools district have a predominantly white student population, with Clarkson Elementary School having an even higher percentage of white students at 95.37%. The district also spends a relatively high amount per student, with Clarkson Junior-Senior High School spending $23,730 and Clarkson Elementary School spending $22,960 per student. These factors may contribute to the schools' academic performance, but further analysis would be needed to understand their full impact.
