Elementary Schools in Red Cloud Community Schools

Summary:

The Red Cloud Community Schools district in Nebraska is home to a single elementary school, Red Cloud Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade.

Red Cloud Elementary School has shown inconsistent academic performance in recent years, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 212 out of 459 Nebraska elementary schools in 2022-2023 and 269 out of 428 in 2023-2024. The school's performance rating by SchoolDigger has also varied, ranging from 3 stars out of 5 in 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 to 2 stars out of 5 in 2023-2024. While 3rd-grade students have achieved high proficiency rates in English Language Arts, the school has struggled to maintain consistent academic outcomes across all grade levels and subjects.

Despite these challenges, Red Cloud Elementary School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.3 to 1 and serves a population with a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (58.28%). The school's per-student spending of $23,055 is significantly higher than the state average, but it remains to be seen how these resources are being utilized to support student learning and achievement.
