Summary:

The 52203 zip code is home to a single standout elementary school, Amana Elementary School, which serves grades PK-4 and is part of the Clear Creek Amana Community School District. With a total enrollment of 110 students, Amana Elementary has consistently outperformed state and district averages in academic assessments, ranking among the top quarter of Iowa elementary schools.

Amana Elementary's academic excellence is evident in its ISASP test scores, which have been significantly higher than state and district averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. The school's statewide ranking has also improved over the years, moving from the 320th position out of 599 Iowa elementary schools in 2015-2016 to the 138th position out of 576 in the 2024-2025 school year. Additionally, the school's SchoolDigger rating has increased from 2 stars out of 5 to 4 stars out of 5 during the same period.

Despite its small enrollment, Amana Elementary School boasts a low student-teacher ratio of 11.3, suggesting that students may receive more personalized attention. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 21.6% for the 2023-2024 school year is higher than the desired target of 10% or less, which may be an area for the school to address. Overall, Amana Elementary School stands out as a high-performing institution with a strong academic track record and a commitment to providing a quality education to its students.
