Meadow Heights R-II

Summary:

The Meadow Heights R-II school district in Missouri consists of three schools: Meadow Heights Elementary, Meadow Heights High, and Meadow Heights Middle School. While Meadow Heights Elementary is the strongest performer in the district, with higher math proficiency and a relatively high graduation rate, the middle and high schools are struggling academically, with significantly lower proficiency rates compared to state averages.

Meadow Heights Elementary stands out as the top school in the district, consistently ranking in the top half of Missouri elementary schools and earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 8.6% is a concern. In contrast, Meadow Heights High has a strong graduation rate of 92.6%, but struggles with academic performance, particularly in Algebra I and Biology I end-of-course exams, where proficiency rates are well below the state averages.

The weakest performer in the district is Meadow Heights Middle School, which is consistently ranked in the bottom half of Missouri middle schools and has significantly lower math and English language arts proficiency rates compared to the state averages. The high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients across all three schools suggest a need to address socioeconomic challenges that may be impacting student performance in the Meadow Heights R-II school district.
