Best High Schools in Zip Code 68104

Summary:

There is only one high school located in the 68104 zip code - Benson High School, which is part of the Omaha Public Schools district. Based on the available data, Benson High School appears to be a low-performing school, consistently receiving a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three school years.

The school's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates on the ACT in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science falling well below the state and district averages. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 10.87% of Benson students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 45.48% statewide. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1%, which may be contributing to its poor academic outcomes.

While the school's per-student spending of $17,908 for the 2022-2023 school year is relatively high, it does not appear to be translating into improved performance for students. The school's 88.1% four-year graduation rate for the 2023-2024 school year is slightly below the state average, further highlighting the need for significant improvements in the quality of education provided at Benson High School.
