Summary:

The city of Reeds Spring, Missouri, is home to a single high school, Reeds Spring High, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has seen a concerning decline in its statewide ranking and star rating over the past few years, dropping from 71st out of 352 Missouri high schools in 2022-2023 to 236th out of 367 in 2024-2025, with its SchoolDigger star rating decreasing from 4 stars to 2 stars during this period.

Despite a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 93.6% and a lower-than-average dropout rate of 1.9% for the 2023-2024 school year, Reeds Spring High faces significant challenges. The school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 27.9%, which is substantially higher than the state average. Academically, Reeds Spring High's performance, as measured by the percentage of students proficient or better on the Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) tests, is generally lower than the Reeds Spring R-IV district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels.

Additionally, Reeds Spring High serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentage of students (45.62%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the school's higher-than-average per-student spending of $13,816 for the 2021-2022 school year, the academic underperformance suggests the need for a comprehensive review of the school's strategies, resource allocation, and support systems to address the identified issues and improve student outcomes.
