Best Public Schools in Zip Code 63840


Summary:

The 63840 zip code area is home to two schools - Delta C-7 High and Delta C-7 Elementary, both part of the Delta C-7 school district. While the schools serve a predominantly low-income student population, they have faced significant challenges in maintaining academic performance and quality.

Delta C-7 High School has seen a concerning decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 30th out of 504 Missouri high schools in 2014-2015 to 306th out of 352 in 2022-2023. Its SchoolDigger rating has also dropped from 5 stars to 1 star during this time period, indicating a significant deterioration in the school's overall quality. Both Delta C-7 High and Delta C-7 Elementary have a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 54.12% and 62.16% respectively, suggesting a low-income student population.

The academic performance of these schools is also a concern, with test scores well below the state averages. For example, in 2022-2023, only 27.3% of Delta C-7 High students were proficient or better in Algebra I, compared to the state average of 41.5%. Similarly, only 15.8% were proficient or better in English II, compared to the state average of 54.4%. The small student enrollments at both schools, 85 at Delta C-7 High and 74 at Delta C-7 Elementary, may also limit the availability of resources, extracurricular activities, and specialized programs that could benefit the students.
