Summary

Schuyler Middle School is a public middle school in Schuyler, Nebraska, serving 380 students in grades 6-8. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Nebraska middle schools over the past several years, with a rating of 0-1 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger.

Schuyler Middle School faces significant challenges in academic performance, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics that are significantly lower than the state averages. The school's performance has remained relatively stagnant, and it has a notably higher chronic absenteeism rate compared to the state average. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a concentration of students from low-income families. However, the school does invest a relatively high amount per student and maintains a low student-teacher ratio.

Interestingly, Schuyler Middle School's performance for specific student subgroups, such as Hispanic and English Language Learner students, is relatively higher compared to other subgroups. However, the school still struggles to achieve high proficiency rates even for these populations. When compared to nearby schools, such as Lakeview Junior High School, Columbus Middle School, and North Bend Central Middle School, Schuyler Middle School generally underperforms, suggesting opportunities for collaboration and learning from higher-performing schools in the region.
