Summary:

The Tekamah-Herman Community Schools district in Nebraska consists of two schools: Elementary School At Tekamah and High School At Tekamah. The district as a whole is ranked 90th out of 115 districts in Nebraska and is rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger, suggesting some room for improvement.

The high school has shown steady improvement, moving from the bottom quartile to the middle quartile of Nebraska high schools in its statewide ranking. Its 11th-grade ACT proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science exceed the state averages, and its 4-year graduation rate is a strong 87.9%. In contrast, the elementary school outperforms the state averages in several key academic areas, particularly in 3rd-grade Mathematics and 6th-grade English Language Arts.

While the elementary school has a student enrollment of 294 and spends $15,814 per student, the high school has 224 students and spends $26,872 per student. Both schools have a chronic absenteeism rate of 19.3% and free/reduced lunch rates around 35-40%. These metrics suggest the district may be facing challenges in overall student engagement and socioeconomic factors, which could be impacting performance across the system.
