Summary:
Kendrick Joint District has only one high school, Kendrick Junior/Senior High School, which serves grades 7-12. The school's academic performance is mixed, with stronger results in 7th and 8th grade math but lower proficiency in end-of-course math and science compared to state averages. Kendrick Junior/Senior High School also faces challenges with attendance, as its chronic absenteeism rate is higher than the state's desired target, which may contribute to its slightly below-average four-year graduation rate.
Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending and small class sizes, the uneven academic performance suggests the need for a closer examination of the school's curriculum, instructional practices, and support systems to ensure more consistent achievement across all subject areas. Additionally, addressing attendance issues and identifying the root causes of chronic absenteeism should be a priority for the school and Kendrick Joint District.
While Kendrick Junior/Senior High School's performance is generally below the state averages, it is important to understand how the school compares to the Kendrick Joint District as a whole. The data shows that the district's performance is also below the state in many areas, suggesting that district-level factors may be contributing to the school's challenges. By closely examining the school's academic performance, attendance, and resource allocation, the district can develop targeted strategies to support student success and ensure that all students have access to a high-quality education.
