Summary

Clinton Senior High is a public high school in Clinton, Missouri, serving 628 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Clinton School District, which is ranked 121 out of 367 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Clinton Senior High has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from a high of 75th out of 367 Missouri high schools in 2024-2025 (rated 4 stars) to a low of 433rd out of 468 in 2017-2018 (rated 0 stars). However, the school has consistently outperformed nearby schools like Appleton City High and Windsor High in terms of statewide rankings, test scores, and graduation rates. Notably, Clinton Senior High has been particularly effective in supporting its low-income student population, ranking 7th out of 279 Missouri high schools in 2024-2025 with a 5-star rating for this student group.

While Clinton Senior High has maintained a strong four-year graduation rate between 91.6% and 94.9%, the school has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 18.8% to 26.6% in recent years. This is an area of concern that the school should address to further improve student outcomes. Overall, Clinton Senior High provides a relatively strong educational experience for its students, particularly for its low-income population, but the school's fluctuating performance and high chronic absenteeism rates are areas that warrant attention.
