Shelton Public Schools


Summary:

The Shelton Public Schools district in Nebraska consists of two schools: Shelton Elementary School and Shelton High School. While the elementary school's test scores are generally below the state average, the high school is a standout performer, ranking 13th out of 209 Nebraska high schools and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

At the elementary school, 6th-grade students excel, with test scores in English Language Arts and Mathematics exceeding the state averages. However, the school's overall test scores are below the state's, potentially due to the high percentage of students (44.59%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a lower socioeconomic status. In contrast, the high school's 41.96% free and reduced-price lunch rate suggests a similar demographic, yet the school's exceptional performance sets it apart, with its 11th-grade ACT English Language Arts proficiency rate of 25% being the only area where it falls below the state average of 33.35%.

The spending per student also varies between the two schools, with the high school spending $24,458 per student compared to the elementary school's $20,233 per student. This difference may reflect the distinct educational needs and resources required for high school students. Overall, the Shelton Public Schools district offers a mix of academic performance, with the high school's exceptional ranking and the elementary school's relatively strong 6th-grade test scores providing a balanced educational experience for the community.
