Summary:
The 62674 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Northwestern CUSD 2 district. While the schools vary in their academic performance and resource allocation, the Northwestern Elementary School stands out as a high performer, with strong proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics, particularly in 3rd and 4th grades.
In contrast, the Northwestern Junior High School lags behind the district and state averages in ELA and Math proficiency. The Northwestern High School, while having the highest spending per student and a relatively low student-teacher ratio, does not seem to translate this into significantly higher academic performance compared to the district and state.
Across the schools, there is a concerning trend of high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.4% to 25.4%, which may be impacting student learning and achievement. Addressing the disparities in performance, resource allocation, and chronic absenteeism could be key focus areas for the district to improve overall educational outcomes for students in the 62674 zip code area.
