Summary:
Ord Public Schools in Nebraska has only one high school, Ord Junior-Senior High School, which serves grades 7-12. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Nebraska high schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger and a statewide ranking of 107 out of 146 schools for the 2024-2025 school year.
Ord Junior-Senior High School's performance is mixed, with a 87.9% four-year graduation rate, which is slightly below the state average, and a high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.3%. The school's academic proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics are also uneven, with some grades performing above the state average and others performing significantly below. However, the school's science proficiency rates are generally higher than the state average.
The school serves a student population with a relatively high percentage (41.56%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher level of economic disadvantage. While the school's spending per student is higher than the state average, and it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.2, these factors have not translated into consistently strong academic performance. The school's declining statewide ranking over the past few years suggests a need for targeted interventions and support to address the unique challenges facing the school and its students.
