Summary

Moberly Senior High School is a public high school in Moberly, Missouri, serving 664 students in grades 9-12. While the school has maintained a relatively high graduation rate and low dropout rate, it faces some challenges in academic performance and student engagement compared to nearby schools.

Moberly Senior High has a higher chronic absenteeism rate and lower test scores on the Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) than the state averages, particularly in Algebra I and English I. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which can be an indicator of socioeconomic challenges. However, the school's spending per student has been increasing, and it ranks relatively well for African American students on the MAP tests, though it struggles with the performance of other subgroups.

Nearby schools, such as Harrisburg High, Sturgeon High, and Northeast High, generally perform better than Moberly Senior High on various metrics, including test scores, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism. Addressing the performance gaps among different student subgroups and improving overall academic achievement could be areas of focus for Moberly Senior High's improvement efforts.
