Summary:

Schools in ZIP code 67037 include 10 schools: six elementary schools, two middle schools, one high school and one alternative school, serving students from elementary through high-school grades. Elementary students perform strongly against state averages: the six-school averages are 58% in ELA, 51% in math and 50% in science, compared with 46%, 41% and 38% statewide. Middle-school averages are below the state in all three subjects, by 8 percentage points in ELA, 8 in math and 7 in science. The clearest overall finding is that elementary results are strong relative to the state, while middle-school results lag.

Park Hill Elementary stands out among elementary schools, leading in ELA at 71% and math at 57%; Stone Creek Elementary leads science at 59%, while Tanglewood Elementary ties it for second in ELA at 60%. At the other end, Derby Hills Elementary is the only elementary school below the state in science, at 31% versus 38%. Derby North Middle School leads Derby Middle School in all-grade ELA, math and science, but only by 2 to 3 percentage points. At Derby High School, 10th-grade ELA is 1 point above the state result, while 10th-grade math and 11th-grade science are 2 and 7 points below. Derby Virtual School is substantially below the state in those tested grades—by 20 to 23 points.

Recent trends differ by school level: elementary schools largely maintained their advantages over state averages, but middle-school gaps widened by 4 points in ELA, 7 in math and 5 in science between the two test years. Individual results also shifted: Swaney Elementary science rose 7 points, while Derby Hills Elementary science fell 17 points. SchoolDigger rankings show a similar mix: Park Hill Elementary rose from the 69th to the 86th percentile, while Derby North Middle School fell from the 64th to the 37th. School context varies too: Tanglewood Elementary has a 25.1 student-teacher ratio yet remains above state results in all three subjects; Park Hill Elementary has a 13.3 ratio. These figures describe different schools and grade spans, so they are not direct like-for-like comparisons.
