Summary:
The 50535 zip code has only one school, Schaller-Crestland Ridge View Middle School, a public middle school serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 141 students. The school is part of the Schaller-Crestland Community School District, which is ranked 61 out of 313 districts in Iowa and has a 4-star rating.
Schaller-Crestland Ridge View Middle School has shown mixed academic performance, with some strengths in certain subject areas like 7th and 8th-grade English Language Arts and Mathematics, where the school's proficiency rates exceed the state averages. However, the school's 6th-grade proficiency rates in both subjects lag behind the state averages, suggesting potential areas for improvement. The school also faces challenges with a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 21.6%, which could impact student learning and achievement.
Additionally, the school serves a population with significant economic challenges, as indicated by the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (50.35%). This may require additional resources and support to ensure equitable educational opportunities. The school's per-student spending of $13,560 is a relevant data point, but without further context, it is difficult to determine if this level of funding is adequate or appropriate for the school's needs.
