Best Public Schools in Zip Code 64068

Summary:

The 64068 zip code area in Liberty, Missouri is home to 14 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 2 high schools, all part of the Liberty 53 school district. While the district as a whole is performing well, ranking 87 out of 386 districts in Missouri with a 4-star rating, there is a significant gap in performance between the highest and lowest-performing schools in the area.

Epic Elementary and Lewis and Clark Elementary stand out as exceptional, ranking 64th and 74th out of 906 elementary schools in the state, respectively, with 5-star ratings from SchoolDigger. These schools boast impressive test scores, with over 70% of students proficient or better in math and ELA. In contrast, Manor Hill Elementary and Ridgeview Elementary struggle, with many of their test scores well below the district and state averages.

The high schools in the area, Liberty High and Liberty North High School, both have exceptional 4-year graduation rates of 95.1%, well above the state average. However, the district-wide chronic absenteeism rate of 15.6% is a concern that may be impacting student achievement across all schools. Addressing attendance issues and ensuring equitable funding and resource allocation could be areas of focus for the Liberty 53 school district.
