Best Public Schools in Zip Code 63048

Summary:

The 63048 zip code area is home to 3 schools, including 1 high school, 1 middle school, and 1 early childhood elementary school. The standout school in this area is Herculaneum High School, which has consistently ranked among the top high schools in Missouri's Dunklin R-V district. Herculaneum High outperforms the state and district averages on several key test score metrics, including Biology I, English II, and Algebra I end-of-course exams.

In contrast, Senn-Thomas Middle School has a more average performance, ranking in the middle of Missouri middle schools and scoring below the state average on several MAP test metrics. The early childhood school, Taylor Early Childhood, stands out with a very low student-teacher ratio of 1.5, highlighting the district's focus on providing quality early childhood education.

The schools in this area serve a predominantly White student population, with relatively low percentages of minority students. The high free and reduced lunch rates, around 45% at both Herculaneum High and Senn-Thomas Middle, suggest these schools serve a population with significant economic challenges. This, coupled with the performance gap between Herculaneum High and Senn-Thomas Middle, may indicate potential equity issues within the district that warrant further analysis.
