Summary:

The 68769 zip code area is home to two schools - Plainview Elementary School and Plainview Secondary School, both part of the Plainview Public Schools district. While Plainview Elementary performs closer to the state average, Plainview Secondary School stands out as a top-performing high school in Nebraska, ranking in the top 15% statewide.

Plainview Secondary School boasts impressive test scores, with 66.67% of 11th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, 33.33% in Math, and 47.62% in Science - all significantly above the state averages. The school's 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and low student-teacher ratio of 8.7 suggest a strong focus on individual attention and academic excellence. In contrast, Plainview Elementary School's 2-star rating and test scores that generally fall below the state averages indicate a more average performance.

The stark contrast in performance between the two schools may be attributed to factors such as higher spending per student ($26,658 at Plainview Secondary vs. $16,428 at Plainview Elementary) and a lower percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients (39.86% at Plainview Secondary vs. 48.28% at Plainview Elementary), suggesting a more affluent student population at the secondary school. These insights highlight the importance of analyzing school-level data to uncover meaningful differences and identify best practices that could be replicated to improve educational outcomes across the district.
