Summary:

The 39204 zip code area of Jackson, Mississippi is home to 7 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools, all part of the Jackson Public School District. Unfortunately, the schools in this area consistently perform below state averages across a variety of metrics, with no clear standout institutions.

The highest-performing school appears to be Isable Elementary, which has the best test scores and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, but it still lags behind state averages. The other schools, such as Jim Hill High School and Wingfield High School, have graduation rates slightly below the state average, and all schools in the area have very high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 23.9% to 24.9%.

Across the board, the schools in the 39204 zip code area perform poorly on state standardized tests compared to state averages, with proficiency rates in English and math falling far behind. Additionally, all schools in the area have 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating very high levels of poverty in the community. These systemic challenges suggest the need for significant investment and support to improve educational outcomes for students in this area.
