The data reveals a mix of performance, with Marnie Simons Elementary School standing out as the strongest performer in the district, while Hamburg Charter High Schools and Hamburg Middle School face some challenges.

Marnie Simons Elementary School consistently outperforms state averages on ISASP English Language Arts and Mathematics tests, and it has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

However, the high school has a strong 4-year graduation rate of 88.3%.

The district as a whole faces some challenges, with all three schools having high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 21.6% to 21.6%. Additionally, the Hamburg Community School District is ranked 281 out of 313 districts in Iowa and is rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger, indicating underperformance compared to other districts in the state. While Marnie Simons Elementary School stands out as a bright spot, the district may need to focus on improving student outcomes, particularly in Mathematics and at the middle and high school levels.
