High Schools in Ord Public Schools

Ord Public Schools has only one high school, Ord Junior-Senior High School, which serves students in grades 7-12. The school's academic performance is significantly below the state averages, with low proficiency rates on standardized tests like the ACT and NSCAS. Despite relatively high per-student spending and a low student-teacher ratio, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Nebraska high schools and holds a 1-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ord Junior-Senior High School's student population is predominantly White (95.53%), with a relatively high percentage (39.84%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. The school's academic underperformance, persistent low ranking, and potential equity concerns suggest that it faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students.

While the school's resource allocation appears adequate, factors beyond just funding, such as student demographics and community-level socioeconomic challenges, may be contributing to its underperformance. Further investigation into the underlying issues and potential strategies for improvement would be necessary to address the concerns raised by the school's academic and performance data.
