Summary:
The 38868 zip code area in Mississippi is home to 4 schools - 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school - all part of the Lee County School District. Unfortunately, the data reveals that these schools are consistently underperforming compared to the district and state averages across various metrics, including test scores, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism.
None of the schools in the 38868 zip code area stand out as clear performers. Shannon High School has significantly lower proficiency rates in MAAP/Algebra I, MAAP/English II, MAAP/Biology, and MAAP/U.S. History1 compared to the district and state. Similarly, Shannon Elementary School and Shannon Middle School also underperform on MAAP/English Language Arts and MAAP/Mathematics assessments. The schools also struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 23.9% to 24.9%.
The data suggests that the schools in the 38868 zip code area face significant socioeconomic challenges, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 53.04% to 64.13%. This may be a contributing factor to the observed academic performance issues. The schools require targeted interventions and support to address the underlying factors and improve student outcomes.
