Summary:
The two high schools located in zip code 52806 in Davenport, Iowa, North High School and Mid City High, are both struggling academically, with low rankings and poor performance on standardized tests compared to state and district averages.
Neither school stands out as a clear standout, with both North High School and Mid City High ranking in the bottom 10% of Iowa high schools for the 2024-2025 school year. Both schools have low graduation rates, high chronic absenteeism, and significantly below-average proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. While Mid City High spends more per student than North High School, this higher spending does not seem to be translating into better academic outcomes.
The data suggests that the schools in this area are facing significant challenges in providing a quality education to their students, which may be related to the high rates of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. Addressing the root causes of the schools' underperformance, such as resource allocation, student support systems, and community engagement, may be crucial in improving the educational outcomes for the students in this area.
