High Schools in Elkhorn Valley Schools

Summary:

Elkhorn Valley Schools is a small school district in Nebraska that operates a single public high school, Elkhorn Valley High School, serving grades 7-12. With an enrollment of 208 students, Elkhorn Valley High School is a relatively small high school that has maintained a consistent performance in recent years, ranking in the bottom half of Nebraska high schools according to SchoolDigger.

Elkhorn Valley High School's strengths lie in STEM-related subjects, with the school outperforming the state average in ACT/Science and NSCAS/Mathematics for 8th grade. However, the school's performance is below the state average in English Language Arts, particularly in ACT/English Language Arts for 11th grade and NSCAS/English Language Arts for 8th grade, suggesting an area for potential improvement. The school's 4-year graduation rate of 87.9% is slightly above the state average, but its chronic absenteeism rate of 19.3% is higher than the state average.

Socioeconomic factors may play a role in Elkhorn Valley High School's performance, as the school serves a higher percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch compared to the state average, and its per-student spending is above the state average. Despite these challenges, the school's small size may allow for a more personalized learning environment, which could be leveraged to support student success.
