Summary:
The Boyden-Hull Community School District in Iowa is home to a single high school, Boyden-Hull High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has consistently performed above average compared to other Iowa high schools, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger in the past two school years.
Boyden-Hull High School's academic performance is generally strong, with students scoring at or above the state average on ISASP tests in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 21.6% is higher than the state would likely prefer, and approximately 39% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic need among the student population. The school district's spending per student of $14,033 in the 2018-2019 school year was above the state average, and the school has a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.7 to 1.
While Boyden-Hull High School appears to be a solid, above-average performing school within the state of Iowa, its fluctuating statewide ranking suggests that its performance may be somewhat inconsistent. Continued monitoring and analysis of the school's data will be important to identify opportunities for growth and development, particularly in areas such as chronic absenteeism and supporting economically disadvantaged students.
