Summary:

The city of Sutherland, Nebraska is home to a single high school, Sutherland High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 118 out of 202 Nebraska high schools in 2021-2022 to 163 out of 215 in 2022-2023. Its current ranking for 2023-2024 is 122 out of 168 Nebraska high schools.

Sutherland High School's academic performance is mixed, with 11th-grade students scoring below the state average in ACT/English Language Arts but above the state average in ACT/Science. The school's 7th-grade students also performed better than the state average in NSCAS/English Language Arts. However, the school's four-year graduation rate of 88.1% is slightly below the state average, and its chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1% is higher than the state average.

Despite the school's relatively low performance ratings, it has a low student-teacher ratio of 9.5 to 1 and a high per-student spending of $22,192, which is above the state average. This suggests that the school may be investing significant resources into its educational program, but the impact on student outcomes is not clearly evident from the data provided. Additionally, the school serves a relatively high percentage of students from low-income families, with a free and reduced-price lunch rate of 28.76%, which may present additional challenges in supporting student success.
