Summary:
The 65611 zip code area is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school, all part of the Blue Eye R-V school district. While the schools face some challenges, Blue Eye High School stands out as the top performer, consistently ranking among the best high schools in Missouri and maintaining a 100% four-year graduation rate.
Across the district, the schools have relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 24.5% to 24.5%, which is significantly higher than the state average. Academic performance on state assessments also varies, with Blue Eye Elementary and Blue Eye Middle School generally lagging behind state averages, while Blue Eye High School performs better, particularly in Algebra I. The schools also serve a significant proportion of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, with 42.13% to 50.59% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
Despite the challenges, the district appears to be allocating significant resources to these schools, with spending per student ranging from $16,247 to $18,239, which is above the state average. The student-teacher ratios are also relatively low, suggesting smaller class sizes. Addressing the chronic absenteeism and uneven academic performance across grade levels could be key focus areas for the district to ensure all students in the 65611 zip code area receive a high-quality education.
