Best Public Schools in Zip Code 64648

Summary:

The 64648 zip code area is home to two small, rural public schools - Tri-County High and Tri-County Elementary, both part of the Tri-County R-Vii district. While the schools share similar demographic profiles, with predominantly white student populations, they face distinct challenges, including declining academic performance at the high school level and potential funding allocation imbalances between the elementary and secondary levels.

Tri-County High serves grades 5-12 with 95 students, while Tri-County Elementary serves grades PK-4 with 94 students. The high school's proficiency rates in Algebra I (20%) and Physics (18.7%) are significantly lower than the state averages, and its statewide ranking has dropped from 197 out of 460 high schools in 2018-2019 to 300 out of 352 in 2022-2023, suggesting a concerning trend of declining academic performance. In contrast, Tri-County Elementary spends significantly more per student ($21,279) compared to the high school ($16,928), which could indicate an imbalance in resource allocation within the district.

Despite the similarities in their demographic profiles, the two schools differ in their student-teacher ratios, with Tri-County High having a lower ratio of 6.9 and Tri-County Elementary having a higher ratio of 10.4. This, along with the small, rural nature of the schools, may present unique challenges in terms of resources, staffing, and educational opportunities compared to larger, more well-funded schools in the state. Overall, the data suggests a need for further investigation into the factors influencing the performance and resource allocation within the Tri-County R-Vii district to ensure equitable and high-quality education for all students in the 64648 zip code area.
