Summary:
ZIP code 61755 has one listed school, Dee-Mack Primary/Junior High, serving prekindergarten through eighth grade and enrolling 432 students. Its 2025–2026 chronic absenteeism rate was 10%, below the district’s 13% and the state’s 24%. The most important finding is that Dee-Mack was above the state in every reported subject, with its largest advantage in eighth-grade science: 77% proficient versus 52% statewide, a 25-point lead.
There is no within-ZIP-code top or bottom school to compare, so the clearest contrasts are among subjects and against state results. Dee-Mack’s strongest state-relative results were eighth-grade science and ELA: science was 25 points above the state, and eighth-grade ELA was 85% versus 63%, a 22-point advantage. Across all grades, ELA was 75% versus 56% statewide, an 18-point lead. Math was the relative weak spot, though still above the state: all-grades math was 47% versus 40%, an 8-point advantage. The school’s all-grades scores were also below those reported for Deer Creek-Mackinaw CUSD 701—by 2 points in ELA and 4 points in math.
Results improved over the two years shown, especially in ELA and science. All-grades ELA rose 10 points, compared with a 3-point state increase, widening the school’s state lead from 11 to 18 points. Eighth-grade science rose 10 points, while the state rose 7, and the lead grew from 21 to 25 points. Math increased 2 points, close to the state’s 1-point gain; its lead edged from 7 to 8 points. For context, the school’s student–teacher ratio was 13.6 in 2024–2025, and 30% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year. These figures describe the school’s profile but do not establish what explains its results.
