Summary:
The 64479 zip code area is home to two schools - Northeast Nodaway Elementary and Northeast Nodaway High, both part of the Northeast Nodaway County R-V district. While Northeast Nodaway Elementary has seen a decline in its state-wide ranking, it maintains strong academic performance in English Language Arts (ELA). In contrast, Northeast Nodaway High has experienced a significant drop in its state-wide ranking and struggles with low proficiency rates in core subjects like Algebra I and Biology I.
Northeast Nodaway Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.9, which may contribute to its academic success. However, the school's state-wide ranking has declined from 589th out of 1,032 Missouri elementary schools in 2016-2017 to 857th out of 1,052 in 2018-2019. Despite this, the school's ELA performance is impressive, with 77% of 5th-grade students proficient or better, significantly higher than the state average of 44.1%.
Northeast Nodaway High, on the other hand, has seen its state-wide ranking plummet from 125th out of 460 Missouri high schools in 2018-2019 to 320th out of 378 in 2023-2024. While the school maintains a 100% four-year graduation rate, its academic performance in Algebra I and Biology I End-of-Course exams is well below the state averages, with only 18.3% and 17.8% of students scoring proficient or better, respectively. This disparity between the elementary and high school academic performance suggests a potential disconnect in the district's educational programs that warrants further investigation.
