Schools in Zip Code 62447

The 62447 zip code area is home to two schools - Neoga Junior/Senior High School and Neoga Elementary School, both part of the Neoga CUSD 3 district. While the schools have seen fluctuations in their statewide rankings, they face significant academic challenges, particularly at the high school level.

Neoga Junior/Senior High School struggles with low proficiency rates in both English Language Arts and Mathematics, well below the state averages. However, the school maintains a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 89.0%, though its dropout rate of 2.4% is also notable. In contrast, Neoga Elementary School performs better in Mathematics, with proficiency rates above the district and state averages in most grade levels, but its English Language Arts results are more mixed.

Both schools serve a high percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, with nearly half of the student population receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This economic challenge may contribute to the academic performance concerns observed across the district. Despite the low academic outcomes, the schools maintain relatively low student-teacher ratios, suggesting that resources may be available to support improvements in student achievement.
