Summary:

The Charter Oak-Ute Community School District in Iowa operates two schools: Charter Oak-Ute Elementary School and Charter Oak-Ute Junior High School. While the district as a whole is ranked below average compared to other Iowa districts, the individual schools show some standout academic performance, particularly in core subject areas.

Charter Oak-Ute Elementary School has relatively strong test scores, with 84.6% of 4th graders proficient or better in Math and 78.6% of 5th graders proficient or better in Science, exceeding the state averages. Charter Oak-Ute Junior High School also stands out, with 86.7% of 6th graders proficient or better in Math and 78.6% of 8th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, again surpassing state benchmarks.

Both schools maintain small class sizes, with student-teacher ratios of 7.8 at the elementary level and 15.2 at the junior high. However, the district faces challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates of 21.6% at both schools and a significant increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch from elementary (42.73%) to junior high (65.57%). Addressing these issues could be key to improving overall academic performance across the Charter Oak-Ute Community School District.
