Summary:

The Crawford Public Schools district in Nebraska consists of two schools: Crawford Elementary School and Crawford High School. While the district as a whole is highly ranked, there is a stark contrast in the performance of the two schools, with the high school being a standout and the elementary school lagging behind.

Crawford High School is a shining example, ranking 17th out of 215 Nebraska high schools and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance is exceptional, with 11th-grade students scoring significantly higher than the state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. Additionally, Crawford High School has a lower student-teacher ratio, suggesting more efficient resource allocation and smaller class sizes.

In contrast, Crawford Elementary School has a more mixed performance, ranking 271st out of 459 Nebraska elementary schools and earning a 2-star rating. While the school's 4th-grade Mathematics scores are below the district and state averages, its 6th-grade Mathematics scores are significantly higher. The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients at both schools suggest potential socioeconomic challenges within the district, which may be an area for further investigation and targeted support.
