Summary:
The Manson Northwest Webster Community School District in Iowa consists of two schools: Manson Northwest Webster Elementary and Manson Northwest Webster Junior High/High School. The elementary school has consistently outperformed the state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics for grades 3-6, earning a 3-star rating on the SchoolDigger rankings. In contrast, the junior high/high school's academic performance has been more mixed, with some grades performing above the state average and others below, particularly in English Language Arts.
Both schools in the district have a higher chronic absenteeism rate (21.6%) compared to the state average, which is an area of concern that the district should address. Additionally, the elementary school has a higher percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients (34.77%) compared to the junior high/high school (29.75%), suggesting that the elementary school may have a larger population of students from lower-income families.
The data also reveals that the junior high/high school spends more per student ($15,054) compared to the elementary school ($12,033), which may indicate that the district is allocating more resources to the secondary level. This difference in resource allocation could be a factor to consider when analyzing the overall educational outcomes in the district.
