Summary:
The city of Wilcox, Nebraska is home to two schools: Wilcox-Hildreth Junior/Senior High School and Wilcox-Hildreth Elementary School, both part of the Wilcox-Hildreth Public Schools district. While the high school has shown some strengths, such as outperforming the state average in 7th and 8th grade English Language Arts proficiency, both schools face challenges in terms of student outcomes and performance.
The high school is ranked 42nd out of 217 Nebraska high schools and earned a 4-star rating, but the elementary school is ranked 354th out of 452 Nebraska elementary schools and earned a 1-star rating. Both schools have significantly higher spending per student compared to the state average, with the elementary school spending $29,824 per student and the high school spending $27,973 per student. However, the impact of this high spending on student outcomes is mixed, as the high school underperformed the state average in 11th grade ACT/Science proficiency.
The schools in Wilcox have a predominantly white student population, with limited racial diversity. This may be reflective of the overall demographics of the city. Additionally, the ranking and star ratings of the schools have fluctuated over the years, suggesting that their performance may be variable or inconsistent. Overall, the data provides a mixed picture of the schools in Wilcox, Nebraska, and further analysis may be needed to understand the underlying factors driving the schools' performance and identify areas for improvement.
