Summary:
ZIP code 67864 has two schools serving prekindergarten through grade 12: Meade Elementary serves PK–8 and has 243 students, while Meade High serves grades 9–12 and has 87. The most important finding is that Meade High’s 2025–26 all-grades proficiency rates were above the state in ELA, math, and science, while the elementary school’s results were mixed.
Meade High stands out at the top across all three subjects: its rates were 52% in ELA, 57% in math, and 54% in science, compared with 46%, 41%, and 38% statewide. It led Meade Elementary by 7 points in ELA, 17 in math, and 20 in science. The elementary school was close to the state in ELA and math—45.6% versus 45.9% in ELA and 40.6% versus 41.0% in math—but was 4 points below in science. Its grade-level results varied considerably: fourth-grade ELA and math were 25 and 39 points above state rates, while fifth-grade math was 38 points below. These all-grades school comparisons involve different grade spans.
Recent results improved overall, particularly in math: the two schools’ equal-weighted average rose 9 points from 2024–25 to 2025–26, while the state rate rose 2 points. That improvement was driven largely by Meade High, whose math rate increased 16 points; Meade Elementary rose 2 points. SchoolDigger rankings also improved: the high school moved from the 77th to the 92nd percentile, and the elementary school from the 32nd to the 48th. The high school’s student–teacher ratio is 9.1, compared with 10.3 at the elementary school, but its 2023–24 graduation rate was 79%, below the state’s 90%.
