Summary:
The Bondurant-Farrar Community School District operates 5 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school, serving students from the Bondurant-Farrar area. The district is known for its strong academic performance, with several schools consistently ranking among the top in the state.
The standout schools in the district are the Bondurant - Farrar Intermediate School and Bondurant-Farrar Junior High, both of which have maintained top 100-200 rankings in Iowa and have impressive test scores, particularly in English Language Arts. Anderson Elementary School has also shown steady improvement, moving from a 2-star to a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past few years, with test scores above the state averages.
While the district's overall performance is strong, with high graduation rates and generally above-average test scores, there is one area of concern: the high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, which are significantly higher than the state average. The district's spending per student is relatively consistent across the schools, indicating a focus on equitable resource allocation. The strong performance of the middle schools could provide opportunities for collaboration and knowledge-sharing to help improve outcomes across the entire system.
