However, the data reveals significant performance gaps across the schools in the 05201 zip code area compared to state averages. For example, at Molly Stark School, only 10.42% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state average of 61% for 4th graders. Additionally, the schools struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates, especially at the middle school level, where Mt.

These challenges highlight the need for targeted interventions and support to address the performance gaps and socioeconomic barriers faced by the students in this area.
