Summary:
The city of Cedar Bluffs, Nebraska is home to a single high school, Cedar Bluffs High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While there are no other high schools within the city limits to compare it to, the data provides insights into the school's performance and how it stacks up against state-level averages in Nebraska.
Cedar Bluffs High School has shown steady improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from a 0-star rating in 2021-2022 to a 3-star rating in 2023-2024. The school outperformed the state average in ACT/English Language Arts, ACT/Mathematics, and ACT/Science for 11th-grade students in the 2023-2024 school year, indicating a strong academic foundation in these core subjects. However, the school's performance was mixed in NSCAS assessments, with underperformance in NSCAS/English Language Arts and NSCAS/Mathematics for 7th and 8th-grade students.
While Cedar Bluffs High School has a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 88.1%, its chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1% for the 2023-2024 school year is a concern that may be impacting academic performance. The school also spends $18,983 per student, which is higher than the state average, and it will be important to analyze how this funding is being utilized to support student learning and achievement.
