Summary:
The 68649 zip code in Nebraska is home to three schools operated by the North Bend Central Public Schools district: North Bend Central Elementary School, North Bend Central High School, and North Bend Central Middle School. The data reveals that the elementary school stands out as an exceptional performer, consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in the state and achieving very high test scores, while the high school and middle school, though still performing well, do not demonstrate the same level of excellence.
The North Bend Central Elementary School has consistently ranked among the top 21-43 elementary schools in Nebraska over the past 3 years, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its test scores are significantly above the state averages, with 67-86% of students proficient or better in ELA, Math, and Science. The school also has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1% and spends $17,968 per student, which is higher than the state average. In contrast, the North Bend Central High School has seen its statewide ranking drop from 34 to 103 over the past 3 years, and its test scores, while above state averages, are not as exceptional as the elementary school. The North Bend Central Middle School has maintained a 4-star rating and solid test scores, but its enrollment of only 89 students is quite low.
Overall, the data suggests that the North Bend Central school district has some strong-performing schools, particularly at the elementary level, but also highlights areas for potential improvement, such as maintaining high performance across all grade levels and addressing chronic absenteeism. Further analysis and investigation into the factors contributing to these findings could help the district identify best practices and opportunities for enhancement.
