Best Public Schools in Zip Code 64844

Summary:

The 64844 zip code area is home to two schools - Granby Elementary School and East Newton High School, both part of the East Newton County R-VI district. While Granby Elementary has a higher percentage of white students, East Newton High has a more diverse student population. However, both schools face challenges, with Granby Elementary significantly underperforming the state and district averages in math and science proficiency, and East Newton High struggling with below-average Biology I scores.

Socioeconomic factors appear to play a role, as both schools have relatively high free/reduced lunch rates, with Granby Elementary at 64.91% and East Newton High at 55.22%. This suggests a low-income student population, which may contribute to the academic performance disparities. Additionally, the difference in spending per student between the two schools ($1,662) raises questions about equitable resource allocation within the district.

Overall, the data highlights the need for a closer examination of the factors contributing to the academic performance gaps between the two schools, as well as the potential impact of socioeconomic and demographic factors on student outcomes. Addressing these issues could help improve educational opportunities and outcomes for all students in the 64844 zip code area.
