Glenwood Community School District


Summary:

The Glenwood Community School District in Iowa is home to four schools: two elementary schools (Northeast Elementary and West Elementary), one middle school (Glenwood Middle School), and one high school (Glenwood Senior High School).

Glenwood Middle School stands out as a top performer, consistently ranking among the best middle schools in Iowa with a 5-star rating and exceptional student achievement on standardized tests. West Elementary School also performs very well, ranking among the top 100 elementary schools in the state. Both schools have demonstrated over 80% proficiency in core academic subjects across multiple grade levels.

While the district as a whole is performing well, with high graduation rates and strong academic performance at Glenwood Senior High School, there are some areas of concern. The district-wide chronic absenteeism rate is higher than the state average, and a significant portion of the student population comes from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, as indicated by the high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients. These factors may require targeted interventions and support to ensure equitable access to educational opportunities for all students in the Glenwood Community School District.
