Summary:
The city of Archie, Missouri is home to two schools: Archie High School and Archie Elementary, both part of the Archie R-V school district. While the high school has a strong 96.0% four-year graduation rate, it has seen a decline in its statewide ranking from 122nd to 284th over the past few years. In contrast, Archie Elementary has struggled, with a 1-star rating out of 5 from School Digger.
Academically, Archie High School stands out for its 7th grade students' mathematics proficiency, with 62.8% scoring proficient or better compared to the state's 43.2%. However, the school faces challenges in Algebra II, where only 15.9% of students scored proficient or better, far below the state's 58% average. Archie Elementary's 5th grade students performed slightly better than the state average in English Language Arts, with a 43.1% proficiency rate compared to 44.3%.
Both schools face similar challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates of 14.0% and relatively high free/reduced lunch rates, suggesting they serve a disadvantaged student population. The district may need to investigate the root causes of these issues and implement targeted interventions to support student success across all grade levels and subject areas.
