Springfield Platteview Community Schools

The Springfield Platteview Community Schools district in Nebraska consists of 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from preschool through 12th grade. The district's schools demonstrate a mix of strong and average academic performance, with Westmont Elementary and Platteview Central Junior High School standing out as particularly impressive.

Westmont Elementary is a standout school, consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in Nebraska with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school excels in academic performance, particularly in 5th grade Science, where 89% of students scored proficient or better, significantly higher than the district and state averages. Platteview Central Junior High School also impresses with its high proficiency rates on NSCAS assessments, exceeding state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics.

While the district's schools generally perform well, there are some areas of concern, such as the high chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1% across all schools. Additionally, there is significant variation in spending per student, with Platteview Senior High School spending $21,255 per student, compared to $14,884 to $17,781 at the elementary schools. The district may want to explore ways to address these issues and ensure consistent academic excellence across all its schools.
