Best Public Schools in Zip Code 68466

Summary:

The 68466 zip code has only one school, Southern Junior-Senior High School, a public high school serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 171 students. The school is part of the Southern School District 1, which is ranked 158 out of 182 districts in Nebraska and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Southern Junior-Senior High School has a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 88.1%, which is above the state average. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1% is significantly higher than the state average, which could be an area of concern. The school's academic performance on standardized tests is mixed, with some grades exceeding the state average in English Language Arts, while others, particularly in 11th grade ACT Mathematics and Science, are significantly below the state average.

Without any other schools in the 68466 zip code to compare to, the analysis is limited to comparing the school's performance to state-level averages. The school's relatively high spending per student of $20,011 may suggest potential funding challenges or inefficiencies within the district. Overall, the lack of comparative data within the local area makes it difficult to identify standout schools, but the insights provided offer a glimpse into the educational landscape of this community.
