The 64078 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Raymore-Peculiar R-II school district. While the schools show some variation in performance, Raymore-Peculiar South Middle School stands out as a higher-performing institution, ranking 178 out of 451 Missouri middle schools and excelling in Algebra I.

Across the district, chronic absenteeism rates are a concern, with all three schools reporting a 16.5% rate, higher than the state average.

Overall, the data provides a nuanced view of the schools in the 64078 zip code area, highlighting both strengths and areas for potential improvement. While Raymore-Peculiar South Middle stands out as a higher-performing school, the district as a whole faces challenges in addressing chronic absenteeism and supporting academic achievement, particularly at the high school level.
