Best Public Schools in Zip Code 63940

Summary:

In the 63940 zip code, there is one public elementary school serving grades PK-8: Fisk Elementary. This school is part of the Twin Rivers R-X school district, which is ranked 247 out of 386 districts in Missouri and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Fisk Elementary stands out for its strong performance in mathematics, outperforming both the Twin Rivers R-X district and the state of Missouri in 3rd and 8th grade math proficiency. However, the school underperforms the district and state in science and English language arts proficiency, indicating room for improvement in these subject areas. Despite having a very high rate of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (88.7%), the school's above-average spending per student ($9,642) and low student-teacher ratio (11.9) may contribute to its academic success in mathematics.

Overall, Fisk Elementary appears to be a standout school within its district, particularly in mathematics, but still has work to do in other subject areas. The school's high rate of economically disadvantaged students, coupled with its above-average spending and low student-teacher ratio, suggest that the school is making a concerted effort to support its students and improve their academic outcomes.
