Summary

Liberty Senior High is a public high school located in Mountain View, Missouri, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 366 students. The school is part of the Mountain View-Birch Tree R-III school district, which is ranked 147 out of 367 districts in Missouri and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite fluctuations in its statewide ranking, Liberty Senior High has shown impressive performance for its low socioeconomic status (SES) students, consistently ranking among the top Missouri high schools for this subgroup. However, the school has faced challenges with chronic absenteeism, with rates ranging from 16.2% to 25.5%, which is higher than nearby schools like Eminence High. While the school has maintained high graduation rates, its academic performance, as measured by test scores, has been mixed, with some subjects performing below the state average.

When compared to nearby schools, Liberty Senior High generally performs better than Eminence High and Winona High, but lags behind Willow Springs High in some metrics, such as test scores and statewide ranking. By focusing on improving academic outcomes, addressing chronic absenteeism, and learning from the successes of neighboring districts, Liberty Senior High can continue to enhance the educational experience for its students.
