Summary:

The 50055 zip code area is home to a single elementary school, Collins-Maxwell Elementary School, which serves students in the Collins-Maxwell Community School District. While the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking over the past few years, it appears to be performing well above the state average in several subject areas, particularly in 4th and 5th grade ELA and Math.

However, the school's 3rd grade ELA proficiency rate is significantly lower than the state average, which could indicate a need for improvement in early literacy instruction. Additionally, the school serves a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (47.62%), suggesting it may face unique challenges and require additional resources and support. The school's spending per student was $14,450 in the 2018-2019 school year, and it maintains a student-teacher ratio of 10.6 to 1.

With only one elementary school option in the 50055 zip code, the community may have limited choices for families seeking alternative educational opportunities. This could be an area of focus for the district or local policymakers, as the school's performance and the community's educational needs may warrant further investigation and attention.
