Hampton Public School

The Hampton Public School district in Nebraska consists of two schools: Hampton Elementary School and Hampton High School. While both schools have some notable characteristics, the elementary school appears to be the stronger performer of the two.

Hampton Elementary School consistently ranks in the top 20-25% of Nebraska elementary schools and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts relatively high proficiency rates in English Language Arts, a low percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients, and a small student-teacher ratio, suggesting a more personalized learning environment. In contrast, Hampton High School has seen significant fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from the top 20% to the bottom 15% of Nebraska high schools over the past several years.

While Hampton High School outperforms the state average in English Language Arts proficiency, it underperforms in Mathematics and Science. The high school also serves a more economically diverse student population, with a higher percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients compared to the elementary school. Both schools, however, have significantly higher per-student spending and small student-teacher ratios, which could be strengths of the district but may also present challenges in terms of resource allocation and program offerings.
