Summary:

The zip code 57523 is home to a single public high school, Burke High School - 01, which serves grades 9-12 and is part of the Burke School District 26-2. While the school was ranked highly in the state in 2022-2023, its performance has since declined, with its ranking dropping to 79th out of 166 schools in 2024-2025 and its SchoolDigger rating decreasing from 4 stars to 3 stars.

Academically, Burke High School - 01 has mixed results, with above-average performance in Science but below-average performance in Mathematics compared to the state averages. The school's 4-year graduation rate was 86.4% in 2024-2025, and its dropout rate was 2.6%. However, over 50% of the school's students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant economic challenge for the community.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $17,376 and a student-teacher ratio of 13.9, Burke High School - 01 appears to be facing difficulties in maintaining its academic performance and serving the needs of its high-poverty student population. Further analysis of the school's strategies and trends could provide valuable insights into how to address these challenges and support the success of students in this rural community.
