Summary:
Hogan Preparatory Academy Middle School is the sole middle school serving grades 7-8 in the Hogan Preparatory Academy district, located in Kansas City, Missouri. The school has a total enrollment of 159 students and is part of a district that is ranked 365 out of 367 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Despite spending a relatively high amount of $16,418 per student, Hogan Preparatory Academy Middle School has consistently low academic performance, with proficiency rates well below the state averages in all subject areas and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 9% of 7th graders were proficient or better in math, compared to the state average of 43.2%. The school also faces significant challenges, with a chronic absenteeism rate of 73.4% and 100% of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a very high-poverty student population.
While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 7.9 to 1, suggesting more individualized attention, this does not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. The data suggests that addressing the school's challenges will require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach to support the students and improve the quality of education provided.
