Summary:
The 64077 zip code in Missouri is home to two schools, Orrick Elementary and Orrick High, both of which are part of the Orrick R-Xi school district. Unfortunately, these schools are underperforming compared to other schools in Missouri, with both Orrick Elementary and Orrick High ranked in the bottom 20% and 25% of their respective school types.
Academically, the schools struggle, with significantly lower proficiency rates in Math and English Language Arts compared to state averages. For example, Orrick Elementary's 6th grade Math proficiency rate is just 11.2%, far below the state average of 44.4%. Both schools also have high chronic absenteeism rates of 21.6%, which likely contributes to the poor academic performance. Socioeconomic challenges are also evident, with Orrick Elementary having a 51.76% free/reduced lunch rate and Orrick High at 41.32%.
Despite the higher spending per student at Orrick High ($15,611) compared to Orrick Elementary ($12,940), and the lower student-teacher ratio at Orrick High (8.5) versus Orrick Elementary (13.1), these factors do not appear to be translating into better academic outcomes for students. Overall, the data suggests the schools in the 64077 zip code are facing significant challenges that need to be addressed in order to improve educational opportunities for the students in this area.
