Summary:
The city of Eugene, Missouri is home to two schools - Eugene Elementary and Eugene High, both part of the Cole County R-V school district. While Eugene Elementary maintains a consistent 3-star rating and performs relatively well, Eugene High has seen improvements in its statewide ranking but still lags behind the state average on several key metrics.
Eugene Elementary has a 346-student enrollment and a low student-teacher ratio of 12.2, which may contribute to its strong performance. The school has mixed test scores, with 3rd grade math below the state average but 4th and 6th grade scores above. In contrast, Eugene High has a 265-student enrollment and a similarly low student-teacher ratio of 11.8, but its test scores, particularly in Algebra I and Algebra II, are significantly below the state average.
Both schools share a 9.3% chronic absenteeism rate, which is slightly higher than the state average. Eugene High stands out with a strong 92.6% four-year graduation rate and a low 3.0% dropout rate, but its overall performance lags behind the state, ranking 255th out of 378 Missouri high schools in 2023-2024. The Cole County R-V district, which encompasses both schools, is ranked 216th out of 367 in the state, suggesting room for improvement across the district.
