Best Public Schools in Zip Code 29827


Summary:

The 29827 zip code area is home to 3 underperforming schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Allendale 01 school district. These schools consistently struggle with low academic proficiency rates, poor statewide rankings, and high concentrations of African American students from low-income families, raising concerns about equity and access to quality education.

None of the schools in the 29827 zip code area stand out as high-performing. Allendale-Fairfax Elementary, Allendale Fairfax High, and Allendale-Fairfax Middle all have proficiency rates well below the state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics, with the high school also struggling in subjects like English 1 and U.S. History. These schools are all rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating poor overall performance.

Despite relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratios, the schools in the 29827 zip code area have failed to show meaningful improvement over time. This suggests that the underlying issues go beyond just resource allocation and point to the need for a comprehensive, data-driven approach to address the systemic challenges facing these schools and provide equitable access to quality education for all students in the community.
