Summary:

The Lewis Central Community School District operates 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from preschool through 12th grade. The district is known for its strong academic performance, with several standout schools that consistently rank among the top in the state.

Lewis Central Middle School is the district's highest-performing school, ranking in the top 100 middle schools in Iowa and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts impressive test scores, with over 80% of students proficient in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Lewis Central Senior High School also performs well, ranking in the top half of Iowa high schools and maintaining a 3-star rating.

While the district as a whole demonstrates academic excellence, there are some areas of concern. The chronic absenteeism rate across all schools is higher than the state average, and the district serves a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with free and reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 32% to 45%. The district may need to focus on addressing these equity and attendance issues to ensure all students are succeeding.
