Summary:
The 64772 zip code area is home to 6 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. While the district as a whole underperforms compared to state averages, Nevada Middle School stands out as a potential bright spot, ranking 187 out of 459 Missouri middle schools and outperforming the state and district in several subjects.
The Nevada R-V school district, which encompasses all the schools in the 64772 zip code, faces socioeconomic challenges, with high free/reduced lunch rates at schools like Truman Elementary (58.2%) and Benton Elementary (59.09%). This may contribute to the district's overall underperformance on standardized tests, with most schools falling below state averages.
However, Nevada High School stands out for its better-than-district performance on Algebra II and Government End of Course exams, and Cedar Ridge School has the lowest free/reduced lunch rate at 13.64%. With targeted interventions and resource allocation, the district may be able to improve outcomes across the board and build on the successes of its standout schools.
