Summary:
The East Newton County R-VI school district in Missouri is home to a single high school, East Newton High. While the school boasts a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 94.3%, its statewide ranking has fluctuated between 160th and 195th out of 367-378 Missouri high schools over the past few years, and it is rated only 2-3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.
East Newton High's academic performance is mixed, with the school performing above the state average in Algebra I and English II, but below the state average in Biology I. The school also has a higher-than-average chronic absenteeism rate of 21.9%. However, the school's student-teacher ratio of 14.4 is relatively low, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention and support for students.
Notably, a significant portion of East Newton High's student population, 58.64%, receives free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage. This suggests that the school may face challenges in supporting its students and addressing their unique needs. Overall, while East Newton High has some positive attributes, its fluctuating statewide ranking and mixed academic performance suggest that the school may need to focus on improving its overall educational outcomes to better serve its students and community.
