Summary:
The Anamosa Community School District has one elementary school, Strawberry Hill, serving students from preschool through 4th grade. Located in the city of Anamosa, Iowa, the school has faced some fluctuations in its academic performance over the past few years.
Strawberry Hill's statewide ranking has ranged from 239 out of 576 Iowa elementary schools in 2024-2025 (3 out of 5 stars) to 329 out of 557 in 2023-2024 (2 out of 5 stars). The school's performance on the ISASP tests has been mixed, with 3rd-grade students scoring above the state average in Math but below the state average in English Language Arts, while 4th-grade students scored above the state average in both subjects. The school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (43.95% in 2023-2024), which may contribute to the academic challenges it faces.
Despite these challenges, Strawberry Hill has some strengths, such as its 4th-grade test scores, which were above the state average. The district and school may want to closely examine the factors contributing to the fluctuations in performance and develop targeted strategies to address areas of concern, particularly in 3rd-grade English Language Arts, where the school has struggled to meet the state average.
