Summary:
Morrill Public Schools has a single elementary school, Morrill Elementary, which serves students in grades K-5. Located in Morrill, Nebraska, the school has seen fluctuating performance in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 168th out of 428 Nebraska elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 314th out of 457 in 2021-2022. Morrill Elementary's performance rating by SchoolDigger has also varied, from 3 stars out of 5 in 2023-2024 and 2022-2023 to 2 stars out of 5 in 2021-2022.
Academically, Morrill Elementary has consistently outperformed the state average in mathematics proficiency, with scores ranging from 61% to 72% for grades 3-5 in 2023-2024 and 2022-2023. However, the school's English Language Arts proficiency has been more mixed, with 3rd-grade scores above the state average but 4th and 5th-grade scores below the state average in 2022-2023. The school serves a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 65.03% in 2022-2023, and has a low student-teacher ratio of 8.6 to 1 in the same year. The Morrill Public Schools district spends $25,502 per student for the 2022-2023 school year.
One area of concern for Morrill Elementary is its chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1% in the 2023-2024 school year, which is relatively high and could negatively impact student learning and achievement. Overall, the data suggests that Morrill Elementary is performing reasonably well in mathematics but may need to focus on improving its English Language Arts outcomes, while also addressing attendance issues and supporting its economically disadvantaged student population.
