Summary:
Gibbon Public Schools in Nebraska has only one high school, Gibbon High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has a diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 50.42% White and 47.88% Hispanic. However, Gibbon High School faces significant challenges, including declining academic performance and a high rate of economically disadvantaged students, with 52.54% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12:1 and spending $18,488 per student, which is higher than the state average, Gibbon High School's academic performance on state assessments is generally below the Nebraska state averages. In the 2022-2023 school year, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 14.29% in ACT/Mathematics to 67% in NSCAS/Mathematics (7th and 8th grade), all of which were below the state averages.
The data suggests that Gibbon Public Schools and Gibbon High School need to address the root causes of the school's performance issues and implement targeted interventions to support student success. While the school appears to have adequate resources, these resources are not translating into improved academic outcomes, indicating that a more comprehensive approach may be necessary to address the challenges facing the school and its diverse student population.
