Summary:

The North Scott Community School District in Iowa consists of 7 schools, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from preschool through 12th grade.

Several elementary schools in the district stand out for their exceptional performance. Virgil Grissom Elementary School consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, with a 5-star rating and 100% proficiency in multiple subjects and grade levels. Alan Shepard Elementary School and John Glenn Elementary School also perform exceptionally well, ranking in the top 100 and 75 schools in Iowa, respectively. The district's high school, North Scott High School, has a graduation rate above the state average.

While the district as a whole is a strong performer, ranking 64th out of 313 districts in Iowa, there is some variation in metrics across the schools. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch ranges from 15.71% at Alan Shepard Elementary to 40% at Neil Armstrong Elementary. Additionally, the district faces a challenge with high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, an area that warrants further investigation and potential intervention.
