Linden Elementary School

Public Grades PK, KG-4

Summary

Linden Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-4 in Fremont, Nebraska, with 355 students. Unfortunately, the school has consistently underperformed compared to other schools in the Fremont Public Schools district and the state of Nebraska.

Linden Elementary's academic performance is particularly concerning, with only 34% of 3rd graders and 37.5% of 4th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 37.75% and 37.77% for the district, and 58.91% and 58.98% statewide. In mathematics, 32.86% of 3rd graders and 52% of 4th graders were proficient, compared to 38.25% and 39.63% for the district, and 60.65% and 59.96% statewide. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 21.5% to 26.4% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average.

Interestingly, Linden Elementary consistently underperforms compared to other elementary schools in the Fremont Public Schools district, such as Clarmar Elementary, Howard Elementary, and Washington Elementary, which have higher academic proficiency rates and serve a lower percentage of students from low-income families. Addressing the challenges at Linden Elementary, such as the high rates of poverty and chronic absenteeism, will be crucial for improving outcomes for the students.
