Summary:

The Hickman Mills C-1 school district in Missouri operates 11 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 324 out of 367 school districts in the state and is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger, indicating significant challenges in student performance and outcomes.

A few schools stand out within the district. Compass Elementary has significantly higher test scores compared to the district and state averages, particularly in mathematics. Warford Elementary also has above-average test scores in several areas. However, the district's only high school, Ruskin High School, while having a higher-than-average graduation rate, still struggles with test scores that fall below state averages.

The data reveals significant systemic challenges across the Hickman Mills C-1 district, including extremely high chronic absenteeism rates, 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, and wide disparities in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios. These factors likely contribute to the district's consistently low academic performance compared to state averages. Addressing these underlying issues could be key to improving outcomes for all students in the Hickman Mills C-1 school district.
