Summary:
The 65248 zip code area in Missouri is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Fayette R-III school district. While Fayette High School stands out as a strong performer, the elementary and middle schools in the area face challenges in academic achievement and resource allocation.
Fayette High School ranks 116 out of 378 Missouri high schools and maintains a high 4-year graduation rate of 95.7%. In contrast, Laurence J. Daly Elementary and Wm. N. Clark Middle schools struggle academically, with proficiency rates below the state average in most subject areas and grade levels. This performance gap suggests a need to address the underlying factors contributing to the lower performance at the earlier grade levels.
Additionally, the data reveals disparities in student demographics, with Laurence J. Daly Elementary having a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. This highlights the importance of addressing equity and providing additional resources and support to these schools to ensure all students have access to the same opportunities for success.
