Summary:

The 68629 zip code area has only one elementary school, Clarkson Elementary School, which is part of the Clarkson Public Schools district. This small school has seen fluctuating performance, with its ranking and rating varying significantly over the past three school years.

Clarkson Elementary School's academic performance is mixed, with 6th-grade mathematics proficiency exceeding the state average but 4th-grade mathematics falling short. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 21.1% is relatively high, which may be a contributing factor to its overall performance. Despite this, the school spends a significant amount per student, at $22,960, which is higher than the state average.

While Clarkson Elementary School's small size of 108 students may present challenges in offering a wide range of educational opportunities, the school's investment in resources and programs suggests a commitment to supporting student learning. However, the inconsistent performance and high chronic absenteeism rates indicate that the school may need to address specific areas for improvement to provide a more consistent and high-quality education for its students.
