Summary:
The Twin Cedars Community School District in Iowa has only one high school, Twin Cedars Junior-Senior High School, which serves students in grades 7-12. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Iowa high schools and is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance compared to other schools in the state.
Twin Cedars Junior-Senior High School's academic performance is generally lower than the state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics for the upper grades. However, the school did perform better than the state average in 7th and 8th grade English Language Arts. The school's spending per student is higher than the state average, and it has a lower student-teacher ratio than typical Iowa schools.
The high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (46.79%) suggests that the school may be serving a population with significant economic challenges, which can impact academic performance. This finding highlights the importance of addressing socioeconomic factors and providing additional support and resources to help students succeed. The school's stronger performance in the lower grade levels presents an opportunity to build on these strengths and implement strategies to improve performance in the upper grades as well.
