Summary:

The 50047 zip code area is home to three schools - Carlisle High School, Carlisle Elementary School, and Carlisle Middle School - all part of the Carlisle Community School District. The data reveals that Carlisle High School stands out as the top-performing school in the area, with impressive test scores, a high graduation rate, and a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Carlisle Elementary School also performs well, particularly in Mathematics, with 82% of 3rd graders proficient or better. However, all three schools face a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of around 21.6%, which may be an area of concern. The socioeconomic factors, such as the percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients and per-student spending, vary across the schools, suggesting potential disparities in resources and student backgrounds.

While the Carlisle Community School District is ranked 131 out of 313 districts in Iowa and has a 3-star rating, the high performance of Carlisle High School indicates that the district is providing a quality education to its students. Addressing the challenges with absenteeism and ensuring equitable access to resources across all schools could help the district and its schools continue to enhance educational outcomes for all students in the 50047 zip code area.
