Best Public Schools in Zip Code 65079

Summary:

The 65079 zip code has only one school, Hurricane Deck Elementary, which serves students from the Camdenton R-III school district. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.5, it faces several challenges, including a declining statewide ranking, low test scores, and a high chronic absenteeism rate.

Hurricane Deck Elementary's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the years, from 451 out of 1,052 Missouri elementary schools in 2018-2019 to 646 out of 906 in 2023-2024, with a current rating of 1 out of 5 stars. The school's test scores in Mathematics and English Language Arts for 3rd and 4th grades are consistently lower than the district and state averages, indicating a need to address academic performance. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 29.0%, which may be contributing to the low academic outcomes.

Another notable characteristic of Hurricane Deck Elementary is its high percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients, at 54.84% for the 2022-2023 school year. This suggests a socioeconomically disadvantaged student population, which may require additional support and resources to ensure their academic success. While the school's low student-teacher ratio could be an advantage, it alone does not guarantee better academic outcomes. Overall, the data suggests that Hurricane Deck Elementary faces several challenges that may need to be addressed to improve student performance and outcomes.
