Summary:
The Woodbine Community School District in Iowa is home to a single high school, Woodbine High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, it continues to face challenges in academic performance and student engagement.
Woodbine High School's four-year graduation rate of 88.3% in 2023-2024 is slightly below the state average, and the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 21.6% is significantly higher than the state norm. Academically, the school's test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are generally below the state averages, with some exceptions, such as the 7th grade ELA proficiency rate exceeding the state average. However, the school's 11th grade Math proficiency rate of 44.4% in 2024-2025 is notably lower than the state average of 65.6%.
Despite the school's below-average performance, it spends more per student than the state average, at $15,588 per student in 2018-2019. Additionally, the school serves a relatively high-needs population, with over 35% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student body. Addressing the challenges faced by Woodbine High School will likely require a comprehensive approach that addresses both academic and non-academic factors impacting student success.
