Best Public Schools in Zip Code 64428

Summary:

The 64428 zip code area is home to two schools - West Nodaway R-I Elementary and West Nodaway High, both part of the West Nodaway County R-I district. While the high school excels academically, the elementary school lags behind state averages, presenting opportunities for improvement.

West Nodaway High School stands out with an impressive 100% 4-year graduation rate and significantly outperforming the state on 7th grade math and Algebra I assessments. In contrast, West Nodaway R-I Elementary struggles to meet state averages on 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade MAP tests in math and English language arts. However, both schools maintain relatively low chronic absenteeism rates below the state average.

The district's overall ranking of 310 out of 367 in Missouri and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger suggest systemic challenges, despite the high school's academic excellence. Further analysis of resource allocation, curriculum, and instructional practices could help address the performance gap between the elementary and high school, ultimately improving the quality of education for all students in the 64428 zip code area.
