Summary:
The city of Collins, Iowa is home to a single public elementary school, Collins-Maxwell Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. This school stands out for its strong academic performance, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics, where it exceeds the state averages. However, the school's student population is predominantly white and has a higher rate of economic disadvantage compared to the state as a whole.
Collins-Maxwell Elementary School is part of the Collins-Maxwell Community School District, which is ranked 225 out of 311 districts in Iowa and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school itself has fluctuated in its ranking among Iowa elementary schools, from 229 out of 565 in the 2022-2023 school year to 391 out of 574 in 2021-2022. This suggests the school's performance and standing relative to other schools in the state may be somewhat volatile.
Despite these challenges, Collins-Maxwell Elementary School stands out for its strong academic performance, particularly in 3rd and 4th grade English Language Arts and 3rd grade Mathematics, where it significantly outperforms the state averages. However, the school's predominantly white student population and higher rate of economic disadvantage may present unique challenges and opportunities for the school in terms of supporting the needs of its students.
