Summary:

The Perry County 32 school district in Missouri serves students from preschool through 12th grade across 4 schools: 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district faces significant challenges, with most schools performing below state averages on academic measures, high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility, and chronic absenteeism.

Among the schools, Perry County Middle School stands out as the highest-performing, ranking 187 out of 438 Missouri middle schools and exceeding district and state averages on several MAP test scores. In contrast, Perryville Senior High struggled with low proficiency rates in core subjects like Algebra I, Biology I, and Algebra II, despite having a strong 93.3% four-year graduation rate. The elementary schools, Perryville Primary Center and Perryville Elementary, also had relatively low proficiency rates on MAP tests.

The data suggests that the Perry County 32 district as a whole faces significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. However, the stronger performance of Perry County Middle School indicates that there may be opportunities for the district to learn from its successes and implement strategies to improve outcomes across all schools.
