Summary:
The 19901 zip code area of Delaware is home to 10 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 1 high school, spread across the Capital School District and the Caesar Rodney School District. While the schools in this area show a wide range of academic performance, a few standout institutions shine, including Major George S. Welch Elementary School, which consistently ranks among the top elementary schools in the state, and Allen Frear Elementary School, another high-performing institution that ranks in the top 15 elementary schools in Delaware.
The academic performance of the schools in the 19901 zip code varies significantly, with some schools like Major George S. Welch and Allen Frear demonstrating exceptional proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies, while others, such as South Dover Elementary School and Towne Point Elementary School, lag behind the district and state averages. This performance gap suggests that there may be substantial inequities in educational opportunities and resources within the community.
Among the middle schools, Dover Air Force Base Middle School stands out as the highest-ranked, with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics compared to the other middle schools in the data set. The presence of a high-performing charter school, Early College School at Del State, also suggests that alternative educational models may be a viable option for addressing the performance gaps in the traditional public school system.
