Summary:
The 64831 zip code area in Missouri is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the McDonald County R-I district. While some schools, like Anderson Elementary and Anderson Middle, perform relatively well compared to district and state averages, the overall academic performance of schools in this area is a concern, with most schools consistently underperforming on standardized tests, particularly in math.
The data reveals that McDonald County High has a strong 93.1% four-year graduation rate and a low 0.6% dropout rate, which are positive indicators. However, the schools in this area face significant challenges, including high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 20.5% to 20.5%, which may be impacting student learning and achievement. Additionally, the schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 54.21% to 66.15%.
While the overall academic performance of schools in the 64831 zip code area is concerning, there are some bright spots, such as the relatively strong performance of Anderson Elementary and Anderson Middle in certain subject areas. Understanding the factors that contribute to their success could provide valuable insights for the district as it works to address the challenges faced by schools in this community.
