Summary:
Nokomis CUSD 22 has two schools serving prekindergarten through grade 12: North Elementary School (287 students) and Nokomis Junior/Senior High School (314 students). In 2025–2026, the high school’s all-grades English results were above the state, but both schools’ all-grades math results were below it. The clearest overall finding is that the schools have different subject strengths, and neither leads in both subjects.
Nokomis Junior/Senior High School stands out in English: 64% of students were proficient, compared with 47% at North Elementary School, a 17-point gap. The high school was 7 points above the state’s 56%, while North was 10 points below. Math reverses that order: North scored 39%, 3 points higher than the high school’s 36%; both were below the state’s 40%. Grade-level results also show strengths hidden by all-grades figures: North’s grade 5 English was 65% versus 55% statewide, while the high school’s grade 8 English was 81% versus 63% statewide. Because the schools serve different grade spans, their all-grades results are not direct same-grade comparisons.
All-grades results mostly declined from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: high-school English fell from 67% to 64% and math from 42% to 36%; North’s English moved from 47% to 47%, while math fell from 41% to 39%. SchoolDigger’s statewide percentile rankings also dropped over three years, from the 72nd to the 54th percentile for the high school and from the 62nd to the 46th for North. For context, in 2024–2025, free/reduced lunch eligible was 41% at the high school and 44% at North; student-teacher ratios were 11.7 and 13.2, respectively. The high school’s 2025–2026 graduation rate was 93%, above the state’s 90%, and both schools’ chronic absenteeism rates were below the state rate.
