Summary:

The Muscatine Community School District consists of 9 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from preschool through 12th grade in the Muscatine, Iowa area.

Within the district, a few schools stand out for their strong performance. Mulberry Elementary School consistently performs above the district and state averages on standardized tests, earning 3 out of 5 SchoolDigger stars. Franklin Elementary School also performs well, with 2 out of 5 stars, and has the highest test scores in the district, particularly in math. Additionally, Grant Elementary School has seen improvements in recent years, moving from 0 to 2 SchoolDigger stars.

However, the district also faces some challenges. Chronic absenteeism rates are high across all schools, ranging from 21.6% to 21.6%. Additionally, there are significant socioeconomic disparities, with free/reduced lunch rates varying from 30% at Mulberry Elementary to 77.43% at Jefferson Elementary. The district should focus on addressing these equity issues and providing additional support to students from disadvantaged backgrounds to ensure all students have the opportunity to succeed.
