The 39367 zip code area of Wayne County, Mississippi is home to 5 schools, including 4 elementary schools and 1 high school, all part of the Wayne County School District. While some schools in this area, like Clara Elementary School, consistently perform above district and state averages, others struggle with significant achievement gaps.

Clara Elementary stands out as the top-performing school, with high test scores, particularly in math and science. Waynesboro Riverview Elementary also shows strength in 3rd grade English Language Arts and middle grade math. Meanwhile, Wayne Central Elementary and Beat Four Elementary lag behind, with proficiency rates 20-30 percentage points below the state average.
