Best Public Schools in Zip Code 50207


Summary:

The 50207 zip code area is home to two schools - North Mahaska Elementary School and North Mahaska Junior-Senior High School, both part of the North Mahaska Community School District. While the elementary school is a standout performer, the high school struggles to keep pace with state averages.

North Mahaska Elementary School ranks in the top 20% of Iowa elementary schools, with significantly above-average test scores in both English Language Arts and Mathematics. The school also has a relatively low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a more affluent student population. In contrast, the junior-senior high school only ranks in the middle of Iowa high schools, with more mixed test score results.

The data reveals a stark contrast in the performance of the two schools, with the elementary school outpacing the high school across various metrics. This decline in academic performance as students progress from the elementary to the high school level could indicate challenges in maintaining momentum and support during the transition between school levels. Additionally, the significantly higher per-student spending at the junior-senior high school compared to the elementary school is an interesting finding that warrants further investigation.
