Best Public Schools in Zip Code 63954

Summary:

The 63954 zip code is home to two schools, Neelyville High and Neelyville Elementary, both part of the Neelyville R-IV school district. While the schools share a similar demographic profile, with over 90% of students identifying as white, their academic performance and resource allocation differ.

Neelyville High ranks 208 out of 352 Missouri high schools and has a 2-star rating, with relatively low proficiency rates on state assessments, particularly in math subjects. In contrast, Neelyville Elementary outperforms the state average in 4th-grade math but underperforms in English Language Arts across 3rd-5th grades. The high school spends more per student ($10,465) compared to the elementary school ($9,120), but this does not seem to translate to better academic outcomes.

Both schools have a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students. This factor, along with the lack of racial diversity, may contribute to the academic challenges faced by these schools. While the data suggests areas for improvement, further analysis would be needed to identify the underlying factors and develop targeted interventions to support student success in the 63954 zip code.
