Summary:
The Boonville R-I school district in Missouri operates 5 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. The data reveals a mix of academic performance, with Boonville High School standing out as a strong performer, while the elementary and middle schools face challenges in meeting proficiency standards.
Boonville High School is the district's top-performing school, ranked 87th out of 378 Missouri high schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school boasts an impressive 95.8% 4-year graduation rate and a relatively low 1.4% dropout rate. However, it still struggles to meet the state average in some subject areas, such as Algebra I, Biology I, and English II end-of-course exams.
In contrast, Hannah Cole Primary and Laura Speed Elliott Middle School face unique challenges, with 100% of their students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-poverty student population. These schools, along with David Barton Elementary, struggle with proficiency rates, particularly in English Language Arts, falling well below the state averages. The district as a whole also faces the issue of high chronic absenteeism, which may be impacting student learning and achievement.
