Summary

Lebanon Senior High is a public high school serving 1,454 students in grades 9-12 in Lebanon, Missouri, as part of the Lebanon R-III school district. Over the past several years, the school has consistently ranked in the lower half of Missouri high schools, with a rating of 1 or 2 stars out of 5 from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance compared to other schools in the state.

Lebanon Senior High faces several key challenges, including consistently underperforming the state average on End-of-Course (EOC) assessments in core subjects, with proficiency rates typically 10-15 percentage points below the state average. The school's performance is particularly concerning for certain student subgroups, such as White students, Multi-racial students, Special Education students, and Gifted and Talented students, who rank in the bottom quartile or even bottom decile of Missouri high schools in their respective categories. Additionally, the school has a slightly lower four-year graduation rate and a slightly higher dropout rate compared to the state average, as well as a significant increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 10.1% in 2021-2022 to 19.1% in 2023-2024, which is well above the state average.

Compared to the nearby Richland High, Conway High Schools, and Stoutland High, Lebanon Senior High generally performs better on academic measures, with higher proficiency rates and graduation rates. However, it still lags behind the state averages, and the nearby schools have lower rates of chronic absenteeism and a lower percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting that Lebanon Senior High serves a more economically disadvantaged population.
