Summary:
The 68059 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Springfield Elementary School, which serves students from the Springfield Platteview Community Schools district. While the school has maintained consistent academic performance, with proficiency rates generally higher than the state average, it faces challenges with a chronic absenteeism rate that exceeds the state's average.
Springfield Elementary School has been ranked between 171 and 211 out of 428-459 Nebraska elementary schools in the past 3 school years, with a 2-3 star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics for grades 3-6 are generally higher than the state averages, with some exceptions in 5th and 6th grade math. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate for the 2024-2025 school year is 19.3%, which is higher than the state's average.
The school has a free and reduced lunch rate of 18.73% for the 2023-2024 school year, and its per-student spending for the same year is $16,331, with a student-teacher ratio of 13.3. These metrics suggest the school has access to adequate resources and funding to support its educational programs, but the high chronic absenteeism rate may be an area of concern that the school and district need to address to ensure students are attending school regularly and maximizing their learning opportunities.
