Summary:

There is only one middle school located in the 69301 zip code - Alliance Middle School, which serves grades 6-8 and is part of the Alliance Public Schools district. The school's performance has declined in recent years, with its statewide ranking dropping from 88 out of 123 Nebraska middle schools in 2024-2025 to 221 out of 238 in 2022-2023, and its SchoolDigger rating decreasing from 1 star to 0 stars during this time period.

Academically, Alliance Middle School's proficiency rates on the NSCAS exams are mixed compared to state averages. While 6th-grade students perform above the state average in both ELA and Math, 7th and 8th-grade students fall behind in these subjects. Additionally, 8th-grade science proficiency is below the state average. The school also faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.3% and a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (63.41% in 2023-2024).

Despite the relatively high spending per student ($16,891 for 2023-2024) and low student-teacher ratio (14:1), the school's overall performance does not appear to be commensurate with the resources invested. This suggests that there may be opportunities for more effective resource allocation and instructional practices to improve student outcomes at Alliance Middle School.
