Best Public Schools in Zip Code 65348


Summary:

The 65348 zip code area is home to two schools, Otterville Elementary and Otterville High, both of which are part of the Otterville R-VI school district. Unfortunately, the data paints a concerning picture of the academic performance of these schools, with both consistently underperforming compared to state averages on key metrics.

Standardized test scores at both Otterville Elementary and Otterville High are significantly below the Missouri state averages, with proficiency rates in math and English language arts ranging from just 5.9% to 23.8% compared to state averages of 30% to 42.7%. These low test scores indicate systemic challenges that are not being effectively addressed, despite the relatively small class sizes and higher-than-average per-student spending at these schools.

The high free/reduced lunch rates at both schools, around 39%, suggest they serve a relatively economically disadvantaged student population, which is often correlated with lower academic achievement. However, the additional funding does not appear to be translating to improved outcomes. Both Otterville Elementary and Otterville High have consistently ranked in the bottom half of Missouri schools over multiple years, with no clear signs of improvement, indicating a need for significant changes to better serve the students and community in this area.
