Summary:
The 53510 zip code is home to a single public high school, Belmont High, which serves grades 7-12 and is part of the Belmont Community School District. While Belmont High's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 212 out of 431 schools to 325 out of 431, the school generally outperforms the state average on academic assessments, particularly in English language arts and social studies.
Belmont High maintains a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 91.0% and a low dropout rate of 1.3%. However, the school faces some challenges, including a higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7% and a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with 32.52% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite these challenges, Belmont High spends more per student ($14,227) and has a lower student-teacher ratio (10.6) than the state average, which may contribute to its academic performance.
Overall, Belmont High appears to be a mixed-performing school, with strengths in certain academic areas but also some areas for improvement, particularly in addressing chronic absenteeism and supporting its economically disadvantaged student population. While the school's performance has fluctuated, it remains an important educational resource for the 53510 zip code community.
