Summary:
The 64505 zip code area in Missouri is home to 6 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, spread across two different school districts - St. Joseph and Savannah R-III. While the schools in this area show a wide range of performance, Oak Grove Elementary and John Glenn Elementary stand out as the top performers, consistently ranking in the top 25% of Missouri elementary schools.
Oak Grove Elementary consistently outperforms the St. Joseph district and Missouri state averages on MAP tests across all grade levels and subjects, while also maintaining a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 27.7%. Similarly, John Glenn Elementary (Savannah R-III) outperforms the district and state averages on most MAP tests and has a much lower chronic absenteeism rate of 14.9%. In contrast, Lindbergh Elementary and Robidoux Middle School struggle with test scores, often scoring well below the district and state averages.
The data also reveals significant socioeconomic challenges in the area, with several schools, such as Lafayette High, Lindbergh Elementary, and Robidoux Middle, having extremely high free/reduced lunch rates above 99%. In contrast, Oak Grove Elementary and John Glenn Elementary have lower, but still high, free/reduced lunch rates of 45.84% and 30.89%, respectively. These disparities in socioeconomic status may be contributing to the wide range of academic performance observed across the schools in the 64505 zip code area.
