High Schools in Elm Creek Public Schools

Elm Creek Public Schools is a small school district in Nebraska that serves a single high school, Elm Creek High School. While the high school has some positive metrics, such as stronger performance on 7th and 8th grade assessments, its overall academic achievement and rankings suggest it is not among the top-performing high schools in the state.

Elm Creek High School has a relatively small enrollment of 149 students, with a predominantly white student population. The school's proficiency rates on ACT/ELA, ACT/Math, and ACT/Science tests are below the state averages, though it performs better than the state on 7th and 8th grade NSCAS assessments. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 85th out of 209 schools to 174th out of 202 schools, and its SchoolDigger rating has varied from 3 stars to 1 star.

Despite higher-than-average spending per student and a low student-teacher ratio, Elm Creek High School has not been able to maintain consistent academic success. The school's performance suggests a need to focus on improving the transition and performance of students as they progress to the high school level, as well as evaluating the effectiveness of resource allocation and addressing the lack of demographic diversity in the student population.
