Summary:
The 57623 zip code area is home to three schools - Dupree Elementary - 02, Dupree High School - 01, and Dupree Junior High - 04 - all part of the Dupree School District 64-2. Unfortunately, the data paints a concerning picture, as all three schools are performing significantly below state averages in academic proficiency.
The elementary and middle schools, Dupree Elementary - 02 and Dupree Junior High - 04, have consistently low proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics, ranging from 24.73% to 30.77% and 10.64% to 4.26% respectively. Even the high school, Dupree High School - 01, while performing slightly better, still falls below state averages with 52.63% proficient in ELA and only 5.26% in Mathematics. Additionally, the high school has a 4-year graduation rate of 86.4% and a dropout rate of 2.6%, both of which are worse than state benchmarks.
Interestingly, the schools in the 57623 zip code area appear to have relatively high spending per student, ranging from $17,513 to $20,236, and low student-teacher ratios of 11.5 to 12.6. However, this does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes. The data also reveals that all three schools have a 100% free and reduced lunch rate, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population, which may be a contributing factor to the low performance. Overall, the educational landscape in the 57623 zip code area is concerning, and further investigation into the root causes and targeted interventions may be necessary to improve student outcomes.
