Summary:
The 67437 zip code is home to a single public school, Lakeside Junior/Senior High School, which serves grades 6-12 and has a total enrollment of 135 students. The school is part of the Waconda school district.
Lakeside Junior/Senior High School appears to be performing above the state average in several key areas. The school had a 89.5% four-year graduation rate and a low 1.3% dropout rate in the 2023-2024 school year. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 48.6% in ELA and 48.6% in Math across all grades, compared to state averages of 44.47% and 38.73%, respectively. The school also had a strong 73.32% proficiency rate in Science across all grades, well above the state average of 41.44%.
However, the school's performance on the 10th grade ELA and Math assessments was slightly below the state average, which could be an area for improvement. The school serves a relatively high-need population, with 57.04% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite this, the school's high spending per student ($14,713) and low student-teacher ratio (10.5:1) suggest that the district is investing significant resources into the school, which may be contributing to its relatively strong performance compared to state averages.
