Summary:
The Glades school district in Florida is home to a single high school, Moore Haven Middle High School. This school serves students in grades 6-12 and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, ranking 31st out of 67 districts in the state. While the school's 4-year graduation rate of 89.7% is slightly below the state average, it faces challenges with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.4%.
Academically, Moore Haven Middle High School's performance is mixed, with proficiency rates below state and district averages in most subject areas, particularly in math and science. However, the school performs better in subjects like Biology 1 and Civics. The school's English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates vary across grade levels. These inconsistencies in academic achievement suggest the need for the school to focus on improving its instructional practices and curriculum alignment to ensure more consistent and equitable student outcomes.
Socioeconomic factors also play a role, as the school has a relatively high percentage of students (50.3%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. The school's per-student spending of $14,695 is higher than the state average, but this higher investment does not appear to be directly translating to improved student performance. Addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism and providing targeted interventions and support services for the school's economically disadvantaged population could be crucial in helping students succeed.
