Cedar Hollow Elementary

Public Grades PK, KG-5

Summary

Cedar Hollow Elementary is a public school serving approximately 500 students in grades PK-5 in Omaha, Nebraska. It is part of the Gretna Public Schools district, which is ranked 42 out of 115 school districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Cedar Hollow Elementary has some areas of strength, such as its 5th-grade students outperforming the district and state averages in science proficiency, the school faces challenges in other academic areas. Its 4th and 5th-grade English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates are lower than the district and state averages, and its 5th-grade math proficiency rate is also below the district and state levels. However, the school's 4th-grade math proficiency rate is significantly higher than the state average.

One concerning trend at Cedar Hollow Elementary is the significant increase in chronic absenteeism rates, rising from 6.3% in 2024-2025 to 21.1% in 2023-2024, which is much higher than the district and state averages. This could indicate underlying issues with student engagement or attendance policies that the school and district may need to address. Unfortunately, without additional data on the school's free/reduced lunch rates and student-teacher ratio, it is difficult to fully contextualize the school's performance and identify potential contributing factors.
