Gallatin High

Public Grades 9-12

Summary

Gallatin High is a public high school located in Gallatin, Missouri, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 164 students. The school is part of the Gallatin R-V School District, which is ranked 147 out of 386 districts in Missouri and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Gallatin High has consistently maintained a 100% four-year graduation rate, which is significantly higher than the state average and the nearby schools like Cameron High. However, the school has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 16.8% to 21.8% in recent years, which is higher than the state average and the nearby schools. Gallatin High's performance on state assessments (MAP) has been mixed, with the school performing well in Biology I but having lower Algebra I proficiency rates than the state and district averages. The school also serves a higher proportion of low-socioeconomic status students compared to the state average, with 34-42% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Gallatin High's statewide ranking has fluctuated significantly over the years, ranging from 93rd to 312th out of Missouri high schools, suggesting inconsistent performance. When compared to nearby high schools, Gallatin High generally performs below average in terms of test scores, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism. However, some of the nearby schools, like Gilman City High and Breckenridge High, have even lower performance metrics. The school's high proportion of low-socioeconomic status students may be contributing to its academic challenges, and addressing areas like Algebra I proficiency, chronic absenteeism, and strategies to support its low-income student population could help Gallatin High improve its overall standing and better serve its students.
