Summary

Boyd Elementary School is a public elementary school in Omaha, Nebraska, serving 555 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Omaha Public Schools district, which is ranked 177 out of 182 districts in the state.

Over the past 10 years, Boyd Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Nebraska elementary schools, with a ranking between 347 and 419 out of 450-488 schools. The school has very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 21.5% to 40.5% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, Boyd Elementary's test scores in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science are consistently lower than the Omaha Public Schools district and the state of Nebraska averages.

When comparing Boyd Elementary to nearby schools within the Omaha Public Schools district, such as Edison Elementary and Benson West Elementary, it is clear that Boyd is one of the lower-performing schools. The high chronic absenteeism rates and the school's performance for specific student subgroups suggest that factors such as socioeconomic status, English language proficiency, and special education needs may be contributing to the school's overall low performance.
