Hannibal Senior High has experienced significant fluctuations in its statewide ranking and SchoolDigger rating over the years, indicating inconsistent performance. The school's performance across different student subgroups is quite varied, with some groups, such as African American and low socioeconomic status students, performing better than others, like special education and gifted and talented students.
