Summary:
The Hazelwood school district in Missouri is home to 6 middle schools serving grades 6-8, with a mix of academic performance across the schools. While East Middle stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, the other Hazelwood middle schools exhibit much lower test scores, with some of the lowest-performing schools in the state.
West Middle appears to be the second-best school in the group, with the highest math proficiency rates across 6th, 7th, and 8th grades compared to the other Hazelwood middle schools. East Middle is the top performer, with the best test scores across mathematics, science, and English language arts, significantly outpacing the Hazelwood district and Missouri state averages.
However, the Hazelwood middle schools as a whole face significant challenges, with high rates of chronic absenteeism and economic disadvantage among the student populations. These factors may be contributing to the relatively low academic achievement across the district, highlighting opportunities for improvement in student outcomes and educational equity.
