Summary:
The 63869 zip code area in New Madrid County, Missouri is home to 3 public schools serving grades K-12, all part of the New Madrid County R-I school district. While the schools serve a diverse student population, they are consistently underperforming compared to state averages, with low academic achievement across all grade levels and subject areas.
None of the 3 schools - Central High School, Central Middle School, and New Madrid Elementary - can be considered standouts, as they all struggle with extremely low proficiency rates on state assessments. For example, only 3.8% of 8th graders at Central Middle School are proficient in math, compared to the state average of 30%.
Despite relatively high spending per student, ranging from $13,363 to $17,175, the schools have high student-teacher ratios and serve a predominantly low-income population, with 100% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests that the district may need to re-evaluate how resources are allocated and implement more effective strategies to drive academic progress and improve outcomes for students in the 63869 zip code area.
