Summary:

The College Community School District in Iowa has only one high school, Prairie High School, which serves grades 10-12 and has an enrollment of 1,271 students.

Over the past three school years, Prairie High School's statewide ranking has declined, dropping from 248 out of 336 schools in 2022-2023 to 177 out of 340 schools in 2024-2025. Its SchoolDigger rating has also decreased from 1 star to 2 stars during this period, indicating a decline in the school's performance. However, the school's proficiency rates in ISASP tests are generally higher than the state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Science, suggesting it is performing well academically compared to other schools in Iowa. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 21.6% in the 2023-2024 school year is relatively high, which could be a potential area of concern.

Prairie High School's student population includes a significant portion from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, with 30.37% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. The school's spending per student of $14,453 in the 2018-2019 school year is higher than the state average, which could be a factor in the school's academic performance. Overall, while Prairie High School has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, it appears to be performing relatively well academically, but may need to address the high chronic absenteeism rate and the diverse needs of its student population.
