Best Public Schools in Zip Code 63108

Summary:

The 63108 zip code area of St. Louis, Missouri is home to 4 schools, including 2 high schools and 2 elementary schools. This analysis highlights the stark contrasts in educational outcomes within this small geographic area.

At the top of the pack is Metro High, a public magnet high school that ranks 1st out of 378 Missouri high schools and boasts exceptional test scores, significantly outperforming the St. Louis City and Missouri state averages. In contrast, the other schools in the area, such as Soldan International Studies and Cole Elementary, struggle with high rates of chronic absenteeism and lower academic performance.
