Summary:
The city of Kahoka, Missouri is home to 4 schools serving students from early childhood through high school, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The schools are part of the Clark County R-I district.
Among the standout schools in the area, Clark County High School ranks 158 out of 367 Missouri high schools and maintains a high 4-year graduation rate of 95.7%. The school also performs relatively well on end-of-course exams, with 37.8% proficiency in Algebra I, 33.7% in Biology I, and 41.9% in Government. Meanwhile, Clark County Middle School ranks 210 out of 438 Missouri middle schools and demonstrates strong performance in mathematics and 8th grade science.
However, the district as a whole faces challenges, with all schools having a chronic absenteeism rate of 18.4%, which is higher than the state average. Additionally, the schools generally perform below the state average in English Language Arts and Mathematics, with the exception of Clark County Middle School's strong performance in 6th grade mathematics. The high free and reduced lunch rates, especially at Black Hawk Elementary and Clark County Middle, suggest that the schools serve a population with lower socioeconomic status, which may influence academic outcomes. The district's spending per student also varies, with Clark County High School having the highest spending at $11,393 per student.
