Summary:
The 83440 zip code area is home to 10 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 2 high schools, serving students from kindergarten through 12th grade. The schools in this area display a range of academic performance, with some standout elementary schools like Lincoln Elementary School, Hibbard Elementary School, and Adams Elementary School consistently ranking among the top in the state, while the middle and high schools in the Madison District struggle to meet state averages in proficiency.
The high-performing elementary schools boast impressive proficiency rates in math and English language arts, often exceeding the district and state averages. In contrast, schools like Madison Senior High School and Madison Junior High School have relatively low proficiency rates, with only around 13% and 25-30% of students, respectively, meeting proficiency standards in core subjects. This performance disparity suggests a need to understand the factors contributing to the success of the top-performing elementary schools and apply those strategies to the upper grades.
The data also reveals a potential correlation between socioeconomic status and academic achievement, with schools having higher free/reduced lunch rates tending to have lower proficiency rates. This is exemplified by Central High School, which stands out as an outlier with its small enrollment and high free/reduced lunch rate. Addressing these disparities and providing targeted interventions and support for the schools serving more economically disadvantaged students could be crucial in ensuring equitable educational outcomes for all students in the 83440 zip code area.
