Summary:
The 68850 zip code area is home to 7 schools in the Lexington Public Schools district, including 5 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the district as a whole is performing significantly below the state average on academic assessments, a few schools stand out in the area.
Bryan Elementary School has the highest performance on state assessments compared to other elementary schools, with over 50% of 4th and 5th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts. In contrast, Sandoz Elementary School has the lowest performance, with only about 30% of 3rd graders proficient or better. The district also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates across all schools, which likely contributes to the low academic performance.
While Lexington High School has lower performance compared to state averages, it maintains a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 87.9%. The district as a whole has very high percentages of students receiving free/reduced lunch, ranging from 54.66% at Bryan Elementary to 86.23% at Morton Elementary. This suggests a clear correlation between socioeconomic status and academic performance, which the district may need to address through targeted interventions and resource allocation.
