High Schools in Hastings Public Schools


Summary:

Hastings Public Schools in Nebraska has only one high school, Hastings Senior High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance has declined over the past three years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 166 out of 215 schools in 2022-2023 to 151 out of 168 schools in the current 2023-2024 school year, earning it a 1-star rating.

Hastings Senior High School faces several challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1% and proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts (33.84%), Mathematics (29.8%), and Science (41.41%) that are significantly lower than the state averages. Additionally, over 50% of the school's students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a population with significant socioeconomic challenges that can impact educational outcomes.

Despite the school's relatively high spending per student ($15,359) and low student-teacher ratio (14.6), the academic performance data suggests that these resources are not translating into improved student outcomes. The school's declining performance and the various challenges it faces highlight the need for further investigation and targeted strategies to support student success at Hastings Public Schools.
