Summary:
The 68333 zip code area is home to 4 schools operated by the Crete Public Schools district, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While Crete Middle School stands out with a strong statewide ranking and rating, the overall performance of the district is a concern, with low rankings and high rates of chronic absenteeism across the schools.
Crete Intermediate School demonstrates strong mathematics performance, with over 60% of 4th and 5th graders proficient or better on the NSCAS Mathematics assessment. However, Crete High School struggles with below-average ACT scores and a graduation rate slightly below the state average. The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, ranging from 51.3% to 64.22%, suggest the district may be facing significant socioeconomic challenges that could be impacting student outcomes.
Overall, the data highlights a need for targeted interventions and support to improve student performance across the Crete Public Schools district. While there are some bright spots, such as the strong performance of Crete Middle School, the consistent underperformance of the district as a whole, as well as the declining rankings of Crete High School and Crete Intermediate School, indicate a concerning trend that requires attention and action.
