For parents comparing the two schools, Concrete High School is the stronger overall performer by statewide ranking. It ranked in the 45th percentile in 2025–2026, compared with the 11th percentile for Concrete Elementary. The high school’s strongest subject was science, with 32.69% of students proficient, and its 11th-grade science result was 50%, slightly above the statewide rate. Its 10th-grade ELA result was also relatively strong at 60%. However, math remains a major concern, with only 12.61% proficiency, and the school’s 70.9% graduation rate trails the state rate of 82.6%; its dropout rate is higher than the state average.

Concrete Elementary had its best 2025–2026 subject result in ELA at 24.58%, while math was its strongest subject compared with the district, though only 18.64% of students were proficient. The school’s results were below state averages in every subject, and its ELA and science scores fell notably from the prior year. Overall, math is the clearest systemwide academic priority, while elementary ELA and science also need attention. Families should also note that the high school has a lower student-teacher ratio and somewhat higher per-student spending, but year-to-year results can vary considerably in these small schools. Suppressed figures should be treated as unavailable, not zero.
