Summary:

Boone Community School District in Iowa has one middle school, Boone Middle School, which serves students in grades 5-8. While the school has some positive metrics, such as relatively high proficiency rates in certain subject areas, it also faces challenges that may be impacting its overall academic performance and statewide ranking.

Boone Middle School's statewide ranking has declined over the past few years, from 223 out of 334 Iowa middle schools in 2022-2023 to 202 out of 344 in 2024-2025. The school's performance on the ISASP tests is mixed, with 8th-grade students performing well in English Language Arts and Science, but 5th and 6th-grade students lagging behind the state averages in these subjects. In Mathematics, the school's performance is generally on par with or slightly below the state averages across all grade levels.

Additionally, Boone Middle School has a relatively high percentage of students (33.68%) who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, and its chronic absenteeism rate of 21.6% is significantly higher than the state average. These factors may be contributing to the school's overall academic performance and statewide ranking. To address these challenges, the Boone Community School District may need to focus on improving curriculum and instruction, addressing attendance issues, and providing additional support for students from low-income backgrounds.
