District-Level NCES Analysis

MILLARD PUBLIC SCHOOLS operates 34 public schools serving 23,637 students, placing it in the mid-size range in Nebraska. The school portfolio breaks down into 25 other, 6 middle, 3 high schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 23,253 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in Douglas County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $13,267 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 58.7% local, 31.6% state, and 9.7% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $67,614 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts. The district's equity score — 25/100, ranked #182 of 200 in Nebraska against a state average of 50 — measures how evenly funding reaches schools within its boundaries.

MILLARD PUBLIC SCHOOLS student-counselor ratio is 639:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)

student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment — districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.

MILLARD PUBLIC SCHOOLS chronic absenteeism rate is 18.2% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism

chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason — illness, family obligations, or disengagement Variation between sub-units within MILLARD PUBLIC SCHOOLS is typically wider than the MILLARD PUBLIC SCHOOLS-aggregate figure suggests.
