Summary:
The 65548 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, all part of the Mountain View-Birch Tree R-III school district. While the district as a whole has room for improvement, with many test scores below the state average, a few schools stand out for their strong performance.
Mountain View Elementary consistently ranks in the top 25% of Missouri elementary schools, with high test scores, particularly in 3rd grade English Language Arts and Mathematics, and a lower chronic absenteeism rate compared to the district and state averages. In contrast, Birch Tree Elementary struggles with lower test scores, especially in Mathematics.
At the high school level, Liberty Senior High stands out with a high graduation rate of 98.5%, significantly above the state average, and relatively strong performance on end-of-course exams. However, the district-wide equity concerns, with consistently high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients, suggest the need for additional resources and support to ensure all students have the opportunity to thrive.
