Elementary Schools in Lyons-Decatur Northeast Schools

The Lyons-Decatur Northeast Schools district in Nebraska has only one elementary school, Northeast Elementary At Lyons, which serves students from grades K-6. While the school has access to significant resources, with high spending per student and a low student-teacher ratio, its academic performance is mixed, with some grades and subjects performing above the state average and others falling below.

Northeast Elementary At Lyons has a diverse student population, with 81.33% White, 1.33% African American, 8% Hispanic, 5.33% Native American, and 3.33% two or more races. However, the school serves a relatively high-need population, with 54% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests that the school may face challenges in supporting its students' academic and social-emotional needs, which could contribute to the variability in test scores observed across grade levels and subject areas.

Despite these challenges, Northeast Elementary At Lyons has shown some strengths, with 5th-grade students performing particularly well in English Language Arts and Science. The school's ranking within the state has also fluctuated over the past few years, indicating that its performance may be inconsistent or influenced by factors beyond just academic achievement. As the district's sole elementary school, Northeast Elementary At Lyons has the opportunity to identify and address the specific needs of its student population, leveraging its resources to improve academic outcomes and provide a well-rounded education for all learners.
