While the schools in the 63049 zip code area have varying levels of performance, they all share a common challenge of high chronic absenteeism rates, which are higher than the state average. Additionally, the data does not show a clear correlation between higher spending per student and better academic outcomes, suggesting that the district-level factors may be influencing the individual school performance. Overall, the analysis provides a nuanced view of the schools in this area, highlighting both strengths and areas for improvement.
