Summary

Galena High is a public high school located in Galena, Missouri, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 207 students. The school is part of the Galena R-II School District, which is ranked 314 out of 367 districts in Missouri and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Galena High has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Missouri high schools over the past decade, with its highest ranking being 272 out of 361 schools in the 2021-2022 school year.

Galena High's academic performance, as measured by MAP test scores, is significantly below the state average across all subject areas and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates in Mathematics (7th and 8th grade), Science (8th grade), and English Language Arts (7th and 8th grade) were all below 30%, compared to the state averages of 32.7%, 39.2%, and 39.4% respectively. The school's four-year graduation rate has been inconsistent, ranging from 90.2% in 2023-2024 to 100% in 2022-2023, but still below the state average. Additionally, Galena High has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 7.8% to 22.5% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

When comparing Galena High to the nearby schools, such as Marionville High, it becomes evident that the school is underperforming compared to its peers. Marionville High, located just 16.52 miles away, has consistently higher academic performance, graduation rates, and lower chronic absenteeism rates than Galena High. Despite Galena High's relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student compared to the state average, these resources have not yet resulted in significant academic improvements for the school.
