Summary

Camdenton High is a public high school serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,288 students. Located in Camdenton, Missouri, the school is part of the Camdenton R-III school district and has consistently ranked in the top 25% of Missouri high schools, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Camdenton High's academic performance is strong, consistently outpacing the state average on End-of-Course (EOC) exams across various subjects. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were 48.6% in Algebra I, 43.2% in Biology I, 62% in English II, and 45.7% in Government, compared to the state averages of 45.4%, 37.3%, 52.9%, and 40.6%, respectively. Additionally, Camdenton High has maintained a high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 91.9% to 92.1% over the past few years, which is consistently higher than the state average. The school's performance is generally stronger than the nearby Climax Springs High, Stoutland High, and Macks Creek High, which have lower academic proficiency rates, graduation rates, and overall SchoolDigger rankings.

While Camdenton High's overall performance is strong, the school faces some challenges. Chronic absenteeism rates have ranged from 29% to 41.8% over the past few years, which may need to be addressed to further improve student outcomes. Additionally, the school's performance for special education and homeless student subgroups is an area of concern, with the school ranking in the bottom quartile of Missouri high schools for these subgroups. Camdenton High spends between $12,092 and $13,013 per student, which is higher than the state average, but the school may need to evaluate how these resources are being allocated, particularly to address the needs of underperforming student subgroups.
