Summary:

The 64761 zip code is home to a single high school, Leeton High, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the school has maintained a 100% four-year graduation rate, its academic performance has fluctuated significantly over the years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 59 out of 468 schools (4-star rating) in 2017-2018 to 305 out of 504 schools (2-star rating) in 2014-2015. In the 2023-2024 school year, Leeton High's proficiency rates in MAP/Algebra I End of Course exams were 26.8%, well below the state average of 41.5%.

Leeton High's student population of 106 students comes from a community with a relatively high free and reduced-price lunch rate of 47.17%, indicating a significant socioeconomic challenge. The school's per-student spending of $13,658 for the 2021-2022 school year suggests that resources are being allocated to support the school's operations and student needs, but the impact of this spending on student outcomes is not clear. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 12.4% for the 2023-2024 school year may be a contributing factor to its academic struggles.

Overall, the analysis of Leeton High, the sole high school in the 64761 zip code, reveals a school with inconsistent performance, high graduation rates but also high chronic absenteeism, and academic achievement that lags behind the state average. The school's demographics and socioeconomic factors may play a significant role in its challenges, and the district, Leeton R-X, may need to implement targeted strategies to improve student outcomes.
