Summary:
The 62914 zip code area is home to two schools - Cairo Elementary School and Cairo Junior/Senior High School - both of which are part of the Cairo Unified School District 1. Unfortunately, the data paints a concerning picture, as these schools consistently perform significantly below state averages on various academic metrics, including standardized test scores and graduation rates.
Neither Cairo Elementary School nor Cairo Junior/Senior High School can be considered standout schools. Both institutions struggle academically, with proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics ranging from 0% to 12.5% at the elementary school and only 3.8% proficient or better in English Language Arts and 0% in Mathematics at the high school level. Additionally, the schools have alarmingly high chronic absenteeism rates, with Cairo Elementary School at 45.5% and Cairo Junior/Senior High School at 61.4%.
Despite the higher-than-average per-student spending and relatively small class sizes, the schools are still struggling to improve student performance. This raises questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources, as well as the potential for systemic issues within the Cairo Unified School District 1 that may be contributing to the poor academic outcomes. Addressing these challenges will require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach to ensure that students in this community receive the quality education they deserve.
