Gilbert Community School District


Summary:

The Gilbert Community School District in Iowa is home to four high-performing schools: Gilbert High School, Gilbert Middle School, Gilbert Elementary School, and Gilbert Intermediate School. These schools consistently rank among the top in the state, with Gilbert High School and Gilbert Middle School standing out as exceptional performers.

Academically, the schools in the Gilbert Community School District demonstrate exceptional performance, with students significantly outperforming the state averages on the ISASP tests in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, Gilbert High School had 94.7% of 10th graders, 97.4% of 11th graders, and 96.2% of 9th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 73.8%, 70.2%, and 74.9%, respectively. Similar trends are observed in Mathematics and Science, with the district's schools consistently scoring 20-30 percentage points above the state averages.

The district's focus on academic excellence, small class sizes, and efficient resource allocation are clear strengths, as evidenced by the district's spending per student and student-teacher ratios, which are in line with the state average. However, the relatively homogeneous racial composition of the student population and the potential socioeconomic homogeneity may be areas for the district to consider addressing in the future.
