Summary:
Bridgeport Public Schools is a small school district in Nebraska that contains only one high school, Bridgeport High School. The high school serves grades 7-12 and has a student enrollment of 253. While Bridgeport High School has maintained a consistent 2-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past few years, its performance on key metrics has been mixed, with strengths in lower grade proficiency but more variable results on high school assessments.
Bridgeport High School's 4-year graduation rate of 87.9% in the 2024-2025 school year is above the state average, indicating a strength in supporting students through to graduation. However, the school's proficiency rates on ACT/ELA, ACT/Math, and ACT/Science for 11th-grade students have been inconsistent, with some years performing above the state average and others below. In contrast, the school's proficiency rates on NSCAS/ELA and NSCAS/Math for 7th and 8th-grade students have generally been higher than the state average, suggesting potential strengths in the earlier grades.
Bridgeport High School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.5 and a high per-student spending of $21,125 in the 2023-2024 school year, indicating a focus on resource allocation and smaller class sizes. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 19.3% in the 2024-2025 school year is an area that could benefit from further investigation and potential improvement efforts. Overall, Bridgeport Public Schools and its lone high school offer a mixed performance profile, with both strengths and areas for potential growth.
