The schools in the 75089 zip code have a diverse student population, with varying free/reduced lunch rates and student-teacher ratios. Vernon Schrade Middle School has lower proficiency rates, particularly in math, compared to the district and state, while the elementary schools show a wide range of performance, with Norma Dorsey Elementary and Liberty Grove struggling in certain grade levels and subject areas. These findings suggest that while Keeley Elementary is providing a high-quality education, the area may face socioeconomic disparities and district-level challenges that are impacting the performance of other schools.
