Summary:

The 54005 zip code is home to a single high school, Clear Lake High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 236 out of 431 schools in 2023-2024 to 363 out of 415 schools in 2022-2023. Its rating has also varied, from 2 stars out of 5 in 2023-2024 to 1 star out of 5 in 2022-2023 and 2024-2025.

Clear Lake High School's academic performance shows some strengths, such as a slightly above-average proficiency rate in Forward Exam/Social Studies for 10th graders. However, the school struggles in other areas, particularly in ACT/Mathematics, where its proficiency rate of 25% is significantly below the state average of 42.73%. The school's graduation rate of 91.0% and dropout rate of 1.3% for the 2023-2024 school year are also notable, though the chronic absenteeism rate of 17.7% is relatively high.

The school serves a population with a relatively high percentage of students (35.35%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which may impact academic outcomes. The school's spending per student of $12,742 for the 2020-2021 school year is higher than the state average, but it's unclear how these resources are being utilized to support student learning and achievement. With only one high school in the 54005 zip code, parents and students in the area have limited options, making it crucial for the Clear Lake School District to address the school's areas of concern and work to improve its overall performance.
