Elementary Schools in Wilber-Clatonia Public Schools

Summary:

The Elementary School At Wilber, the sole elementary school in the Wilber-Clatonia Public Schools district in Nebraska, has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past three school years, dropping from 277th out of 428 Nebraska elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 342nd out of 457 in 2021-2022. The school's performance on standardized tests is mixed compared to state averages, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics generally below the state averages for 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades, but the 5th-grade proficiency rate in Science was higher than the state average.

The school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (34.35% in 2022-2023), indicating a higher proportion of students from low-income families. However, the school's per-student spending for the 2022-2023 school year was $15,513, which is higher than the state average, and the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.6 to 1, suggesting a relatively favorable staffing situation.

Overall, the analysis of the single elementary school in the Wilber-Clatonia Public Schools district suggests that there may be opportunities for improvement in the school's academic outcomes, particularly in comparison to state-level averages. Further investigation into the specific challenges and factors influencing the school's performance could help identify areas for targeted interventions and support.
