High Schools in Ainsworth Community Schools

Summary:

Ainsworth Community Schools in Nebraska has only one high school, Ainsworth High School, which serves grades 9-12. The school's performance has been somewhat inconsistent, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 104 and 117 out of 202-215 Nebraska high schools over the past three school years, and its SchoolDigger rating ranging from 2 to 3 stars out of 5 during the same period.

Ainsworth High School's four-year graduation rate for the 2023-2024 school year is 88.1%, slightly below the state average, and its chronic absenteeism rate is 21.1%, higher than the state average. Academically, the school's proficiency rates in ACT/English Language Arts, ACT/Mathematics, and ACT/Science are all below the state averages, though its ACT/Science proficiency is significantly higher than the state average. The school's per-student spending is significantly higher than the state average, and it has a relatively low student-to-teacher ratio of 7.2.

Despite the school's investment in resources, it appears to be facing challenges in maintaining consistent academic performance. The high percentage of students (47.9%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggests the school may be serving a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, which could be a contributing factor to its academic outcomes. Further investigation and targeted interventions may be necessary to help Ainsworth Community Schools improve the academic performance of Ainsworth High School.
