Summary

Crete Intermediate School is a public elementary school serving grades 3-5 in Crete, Nebraska, with 447 students. The school faces several challenges, including below-average test scores, high chronic absenteeism, and disparities in student group performance.

While Crete Intermediate School performs better in Math than the state average, with 69.81% of 5th graders proficient or better, the school struggles in English Language Arts, with only 48.99% of 3rd graders proficient or better, compared to the state average of 57.45%. The school also has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 8.8% to 21.1% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the school's performance varies greatly across different student subgroups, with Crete Public Schools ranking 108 out of 115 districts in the state and having a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Cavett Elementary and Adams Elementary in the Lincoln Public Schools district, which consistently rank in the top 25% of Nebraska schools, Crete Intermediate School performs lower. However, the school outperforms some other nearby schools, such as Hill Elementary and Roper Elementary, also part of the Lincoln Public Schools district. Addressing the issues of poverty, student engagement, and the unique needs of the diverse student population may be key to improving the school's overall performance.
