Summary:
The city of Hildreth, Nebraska has only one school serving grades 3-6, Wilcox-Hildreth Upper Elementary, which is part of the Wilcox-Hildreth Public Schools district. With a small enrollment of just 58 students, the school has a predominantly white student body and faces challenges in academic performance, as evidenced by its declining state-wide ranking and below-average proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics.
Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 7.6, it spends a notably high $28,707 per student, raising questions about the efficient allocation of resources. Additionally, the school's 1-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranking of 360 out of 459 Nebraska elementary schools in the 2022-2023 school year indicate a need for improvement in overall academic achievement and student outcomes.
The lack of racial diversity and the school's underperformance in key academic areas suggest that the Hildreth community may benefit from further investigation and targeted interventions to address these challenges and provide a more equitable and effective educational experience for its students.
