Elementary School At Johnson

Public Grades PK, KG-5

Summary

Elementary School At Johnson is a public elementary school in Johnson, Nebraska, serving 202 students in grades PK-6 and part of the highly-ranked Johnson County Central Public Schools district.

This school consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in Nebraska, with exceptional academic performance. Students at Elementary School At Johnson demonstrate significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to state averages. However, the student population is overwhelmingly White, with over 99% of students identifying as such, in contrast to the greater racial diversity observed in nearby schools like Hayward Elementary School and Johnson County Central El-Tecumseh. Additionally, the school has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a higher socioeconomic status of the student population.

The high per-student spending at Elementary School At Johnson, ranging from $11,991 to $15,488 over the past four school years, may contribute to the school's academic success. However, this raises questions about the equitable allocation of resources and whether the school is effectively addressing the needs of students from lower-income backgrounds. Overall, Elementary School At Johnson is an exceptional educational institution, but the lack of racial diversity and potential socioeconomic factors warrant further investigation to ensure that all students have access to the same educational opportunities.
