Best Public Schools in Zip Code 68640

Summary:

The 68640 zip code is home to two schools: Twin River Elementary-Genoa and Twin River Senior High School, both part of the Twin River Public Schools district. While the elementary school has maintained a relatively stable performance, the high school has seen significant fluctuations in its statewide ranking, going from a 0-star rating to a 4-star rating and then back down to a 1-star rating over the past few years.

Both schools face challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, exceeding 21% at each institution. This is an area of concern that may be impacting student learning and achievement. Additionally, the high school's test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are generally below the state averages, suggesting a need to align curriculum and instructional practices across the grade levels to ensure a more seamless transition and consistent academic performance.

While the elementary school spends more per student ($26,734) compared to the high school ($22,874), the reasons for this discrepancy are unclear and may warrant further investigation to ensure that resources are being allocated effectively to support student outcomes. Overall, the schools in the 68640 zip code face a mix of strengths and challenges, and targeted interventions may be necessary to address the identified areas of concern and promote the academic success of all students in the district.
