Summary:
English Valleys Community School District has one high school, English Valleys Junior-Senior High School, which serves students in grades 7-12. The school has consistently ranked in the top half of Iowa high schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating average performance compared to other schools in the state.
English Valleys Junior-Senior High School has some academic strengths, outperforming the state average in several ISASP subject areas, including 10th and 11th grade English Language Arts, 7th and 8th grade Mathematics, and 10th and 8th grade Science. However, the school underperforms the state average in other areas, such as 6th grade English Language Arts and Mathematics, suggesting room for improvement in these weaker subjects. The school's 4-year graduation rate of 88.3% is slightly above the state average, but its chronic absenteeism rate of 21.6% is higher than the state average, which could impact student learning and achievement.
With a student-teacher ratio of 11.4, which is slightly lower than the state average, and per-student spending of $17,392, which is higher than the state average, English Valleys Community School District appears to be investing resources into the high school. However, the school serves a relatively high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with nearly half of the student population qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which may influence the school's academic performance and resource needs.
