The 38824 zip code in Mississippi is home to two schools, Baldwyn High School and Baldwyn Elementary School, both part of the Baldwyn School District. While the district is ranked 78 out of 130 in the state and has a 2-star rating, the schools within it show some notable strengths and areas for improvement.

Baldwyn High School stands out for its relatively high proficiency rates on the MAAP tests, particularly in Algebra I (80% proficient or better), Biology (78.3% proficient or better), and 5th grade Science (78.5% proficient or better) - significantly higher than state averages.

Both schools serve a student population that is predominantly economically disadvantaged, with over 99% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests the need for additional resources and support to address the unique challenges faced by the community. While Baldwyn High School has managed to achieve strong academic results in certain areas, the lower performance at the elementary level may indicate a need for more targeted interventions to better prepare students for success in later grades.
