Summary:
The 64037 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. While the high school, Lafayette County High, performs slightly better than the district and state averages, the elementary school, Grandview Elementary, struggles with low proficiency rates on state assessments and is ranked in the bottom 20% of Missouri elementary schools. The middle school, Lafayette County Middle, performs better than the elementary school but still lags behind state averages.
The schools in the 64037 zip code serve a predominantly white student population, with the alternative school, Rolling Meadow School, having the highest percentage of non-white students. Socioeconomic challenges are evident, with a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, particularly at the elementary and middle schools. This may be a contributing factor to the lower academic performance observed across the district.
Overall, the data suggests that the quality of education in the 64037 zip code area is inconsistent, with the high school performing better than the elementary school. Further investigation and targeted interventions may be necessary to address the performance gaps, socioeconomic challenges, and potential equity concerns in order to improve educational outcomes for the students in this community.
