Louisville Public Schools

Summary:

The Louisville Public Schools district in Nebraska consists of three schools: Louisville Elementary School, Louisville High School, and Louisville Middle School. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade in the Louisville area.

Louisville Elementary School stands out for its consistently high performance on state assessments, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics often exceeding the state average. The school's 3rd and 6th grade ELA proficiency rates reached 79.25% and 78.26% respectively in recent years, while 4th and 5th grade Mathematics proficiency rates were 68.63% and 80.43% in 2023-2024. In contrast, Louisville High School impresses with its ACT performance, where 11th-grade students outperformed the state average in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science.

While the schools in the Louisville Public Schools district generally perform well, with all three schools ranked in the top half of their respective school types in Nebraska, there is a concern regarding chronic absenteeism. All three schools have a chronic absenteeism rate of 19.3% in 2024-2025, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, the district's spending per student is relatively high, ranging from $16,483 at Louisville Elementary to $17,895 at Louisville High School, which may be contributing to the academic success observed, particularly at the elementary level.
