Summary:

The 64744 zip code is home to a single high school, El Dorado Springs High School, which is part of the El Dorado Springs R-II school district. While the school serves the local community, its performance has been declining in recent years, with a statewide ranking that has dropped from 274 out of 361 Missouri high schools in 2021-2022 to 319 out of 378 in 2023-2024.

El Dorado Springs High School faces several challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 18.8% and a relatively low four-year graduation rate of 88.7%. Additionally, the school's proficiency rates in Algebra I and Biology I are significantly lower than the district and state averages, with only 23.5% of students proficient or better in Algebra I, compared to 26.5% for the district and 41.5% for the state. The school also serves a population with significant economic challenges, with 38.58% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Despite these challenges, El Dorado Springs High School has a student-teacher ratio of 11.7, and the school district spent $9,969 per student in the 2021-2022 school year. However, the lack of school choice options in the 64744 zip code may limit the opportunities available to families in the area. Addressing the school's performance issues will likely require a comprehensive approach involving school leadership, teachers, and the broader community.
