Best Public Schools in Zip Code 63937


Summary:

The 63937 zip code area is home to 3 schools in the East Carter County R-II school district, including 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school. While the East Carter County R-II Elementary school stands out as a top performer, the district's middle and high schools have struggled to match that level of achievement.

The East Carter County R-II Elementary school is a standout, consistently ranking in the top 25% of Missouri elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. Its students significantly outperform the state averages in both math and English language arts across all grade levels. In contrast, the East Carter County R-II High School has lagged behind, ranking in the bottom half of Missouri high schools and earning only a 2-star rating, with test scores, especially in Biology I, falling short of the state averages.

Across the district, the schools serve a predominantly white student population, with 60-66% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. The district invests in smaller class sizes, with student-teacher ratios ranging from 11.3 to 12.7 students per teacher. However, the significant gap in test scores between the elementary and high school levels suggests a need to examine the vertical alignment and continuity of the curriculum and instruction across grade levels to ensure more consistent quality throughout the district.
