Best Public Schools in Zip Code 64482


Summary:

The 64482 zip code area is home to two high-performing schools, Rock Port Elementary and Rock Port High, which serve students from kindergarten through 12th grade. These schools have consistently ranked among the top 20-30% of Missouri schools in their respective grade levels, earning 4-5 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger.

Academically, both schools excel, with Rock Port Elementary's 4th-grade math proficiency rate significantly higher than the state average, and Rock Port High's 7th-grade math, 8th-grade science, and 7th-grade ELA proficiency rates all exceeding state benchmarks. The schools also maintain low student-teacher ratios, around 9.5-9.8 students per teacher, which may contribute to their academic success. However, the student populations at both schools are predominantly white, with over 97% of students identifying as such, which could indicate a lack of diversity in the learning environment.

Regarding socioeconomic factors, Rock Port Elementary has a higher free/reduced lunch rate (33%) compared to Rock Port High (27%), suggesting more economic challenges faced by families with younger children in the district. The higher per-student spending at the high school level ($13,744) compared to the elementary school ($12,021) may help address these needs. Overall, the Rock Port R-II district appears to provide a high-quality education, but the lack of diversity and potential socioeconomic disparities within the community are areas that may warrant further exploration and consideration by school leaders and the local community.
