Best Public Schools in Zip Code 38804


Summary:

The 38804 zip code area in Mississippi is home to 4 schools, including 3 elementary schools (Lawhon, Joyner, and Carver) and 1 middle school (Milam). These schools serve a diverse student population, with a majority African American enrollment and significant percentages of White, Hispanic, and Asian students.

Milam Elementary School stands out as the top-performing school in the area, with exceptional 6th-grade test scores that exceed the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Math. In contrast, Lawhon Elementary School has shown mixed results, with some grades performing well above the district and state, while others are below. Notably, Lawhon's 5th-grade students excelled in Math and Science compared to their peers.

Across all 4 schools, the student populations face significant economic disadvantages, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 99.05% to 99.46%. This socioeconomic factor may contribute to the academic challenges faced by some of the schools. However, factors such as lower student-teacher ratios at Joyner Elementary School and Carver Elementary School may be positively impacting their performance, while Milam Elementary's higher ratio suggests that other factors, such as teaching quality or school leadership, may be driving its academic success within the Tupelo Public School District.
