Schools in Zip Code 57325

Zip code 57325 has three public schools serving kindergarten through grade 12: Chamberlain Elementary - 03 (K–5), Chamberlain Junior High - 02 (grades 6–8), and Chamberlain High School - 01 (grades 9–12). The clearest area-wide concern is math: the two schools with comparable all-grades results averaged 38% proficient in 2025–2026, 6 percentage points below the 44% state result, with the junior high well below the state.

Chamberlain Elementary - 03 stands out in current math, with 47% proficient versus 29% at Chamberlain Junior High - 02 and 44% statewide. That overall result hides sharp grade differences: elementary grade 4 math was 57%, 8 points above the state, while junior high grade 6 was 26%, 16 points below. Junior high had the stronger all-grades ELA result, 46% versus elementary’s 43%, though both were below the 49% state result. At Chamberlain High School - 01, 11th-grade ACT ELA was a bright spot at 51%, 3 points above the state; ACT math was 29% and science 36%, below state results. The high school’s ACT results are not directly comparable with the K–8 Smarter Balanced scores.

The ELA average fell 2 points, with its state gap widening by about 1 point.
