Summary:

The 68342 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Diller-Odell Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 and has a total enrollment of 137 students. As the only elementary school in the area, Diller-Odell provides the primary educational foundation for children in this community.

Diller-Odell Elementary School is part of the Diller-Odell Public Schools district, which is ranked 92 out of 182 districts in Nebraska and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance has been mixed, with some grade levels performing above the state average in English Language Arts and Math, while others fall below. However, the school's low percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, combined with its higher per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, suggest it may have access to more resources and potentially serve a more affluent student population compared to the state average.

Over the past few years, Diller-Odell Elementary School's statewide ranking has fluctuated, going from 154 out of 457 Nebraska elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 200 out of 459 in 2022-2023, and then dropping to 259 out of 428 in 2023-2024. Its SchoolDigger rating has remained at 3 stars out of 5 for the past two school years. This indicates the need for ongoing monitoring and improvement efforts to maintain or enhance the school's performance and standing within the state.
