Summary:
The 99588 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school - all part of the Copper River School District, which is ranked 5th out of 24 districts in Alaska and has a 4-star rating.
The standout school in this set is Upstream Learning Correspondence, the alternative school, which has significantly higher proficiency rates compared to the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels. In contrast, Glennallen Junior/Senior High School has lower proficiency rates in most areas, though it does excel in 8th and 9th grade mathematics. Glennallen Elementary has mixed performance, with higher science proficiency but lower English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency compared to the district and state.
The differences in spending per student and student-teacher ratios between the schools may contribute to the variations in academic performance, with the alternative school's higher student-teacher ratio potentially indicating the effectiveness of its teaching model. Additionally, the high free/reduced lunch rates at the high school and elementary school suggest these schools serve a population with higher economic needs, which may impact academic outcomes and require additional support.
