Summary:
The 64067 zip code area in Lexington, Missouri is home to 3 public schools serving grades K-12, all of which are part of the Lexington R-V school district. Based on the available data, these schools are collectively underperforming, with low proficiency rates on state assessments and high rates of economic disadvantage among the student populations.
None of the 3 schools - Leslie Bell Elementary, Lexington High, and Lexington Middle - stand out as high-performing, with all 3 receiving low ratings from the SchoolDigger ranking system. Proficiency rates on state assessments are well below state averages, particularly at Lexington High where only 3.7% of students were proficient in Algebra I and 8.4% in Biology I.
Across the schools, there are high rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 53.12% at Lexington High to 63.56% at Leslie Bell Elementary. This suggests a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student populations. Additionally, all 3 schools have high rates of chronic absenteeism, which likely contributes to the low academic performance observed. While the Lexington High School graduation rate is relatively high at 89.6%, the district as a whole is ranked 334 out of 367 districts in Missouri, further highlighting the challenges faced by these schools.
