Summary:

The 62061 zip code is home to a single public elementary school, Marine Elementary School, which serves grades K-5 and is part of the Triad CUSD 2 district. While the school's academic performance has been mixed compared to state and district averages, it has shown strengths in certain areas, such as its 5th-grade science proficiency rate exceeding the state average.

Marine Elementary School's enrollment stands at 132 students, with a relatively low free and reduced-price lunch rate of 18.94%, suggesting a student population that is not predominantly from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. The school's per-student spending of $12,469 is higher than the state average, indicating that the district is allocating significant resources to support the education of its students. Additionally, the school's student-teacher ratio of 15.7 is relatively low, which could positively impact the learning environment.

However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4% is a concern that the school and district should address. While the school has shown some academic strengths, its performance in English Language Arts and Mathematics has been mixed, with proficiency rates fluctuating in recent years and sometimes falling short of both state and district averages. Continued efforts to improve attendance and academic outcomes may be necessary to ensure the success of Marine Elementary School and its students.
