Summary:

The Bertrand Public Schools district in Nebraska consists of two schools: Bertrand Elementary School and Bertrand High School. Both schools have shown some strengths, with Bertrand Elementary outperforming the state average in 6th-grade English Language Arts and Mathematics, and Bertrand High achieving a relatively high 88.1% four-year graduation rate.

Bertrand Elementary School is ranked 137 out of 428 Nebraska elementary schools and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, while Bertrand High School is ranked 113 out of 168 Nebraska high schools and has a 2-star rating. The elementary school's low student-teacher ratio of 10.4 may contribute to its academic performance. However, both schools face challenges, with a 21.1% chronic absenteeism rate and higher free/reduced lunch rates at the high school level (46.28%) compared to the elementary school (36.89%).

Overall, the Bertrand Public Schools district shows a mix of strengths and areas for improvement. While the elementary school's academic performance and the high school's graduation rate are positive indicators, the district may need to address the chronic absenteeism and socioeconomic factors that appear to increase as students progress through the education system.
