Summary:

The Gibbon Public Schools district in Nebraska consists of two schools - Gibbon Elementary School and Gibbon High School. Both schools appear to be underperforming compared to the state average, with low statewide rankings, below-average test scores, and higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rates.

Gibbon Elementary School has a relatively low statewide ranking, ranging from 250 to 316 out of 428-459 Nebraska elementary schools over the past 3 years. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1% in 2023-2024 is higher than the state average, and its test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics across grades 3-6 are generally below the state average. In contrast, Gibbon High School has an even lower statewide ranking, ranging from 157 to 188 out of 168-215 Nebraska high schools over the past 3 years. The high school's graduation rate of 88.1% in 2023-2024 is slightly below the state average, and its ACT test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are significantly below the state average for 11th grade students.

The data suggests that the Gibbon Public Schools district faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. Both the elementary and high school struggle with low rankings, poor academic performance, and high chronic absenteeism rates. The district's overall ranking of 178 out of 182 in Nebraska and its 0-star rating from SchoolDigger further highlight the need for comprehensive improvement strategies to address the underlying issues and support student success.
