Summary

Glasgow High is a public high school serving grades 6-12 in Glasgow, Missouri, with a total enrollment of 183 students. The school has seen its performance ranking among Missouri high schools fluctuate over the years, currently ranking 292nd out of 352 schools in the state with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One of the school's strengths is its relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 87.5% to 95.8% in recent years.

For example, in 2024-2025, only 16.8% of 6th-grade students at Glasgow High were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to the state average of 45.5%. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 11.5% to 21.7% over the past few years. Additionally, Glasgow High has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a higher proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

When comparing Glasgow High to nearby schools, such as Salisbury High, located about 13 miles away, the differences in performance are stark. Salisbury High consistently outperforms Glasgow High across various metrics, including test scores, graduation rates, and student-teacher ratios. This suggests that the quality of education and resources available at Salisbury High may be significantly better than those at Glasgow High. Addressing the underlying challenges at Glasgow High, such as chronic absenteeism and the impact of socioeconomic factors, will be crucial for the school to improve and provide a better educational experience for its students.
