Summary

North Callaway Middle School is a public middle school serving 225 students in grades 6-8 in Auxvasse, Missouri, which is part of the North Callaway County R-I school district. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and spends more per student than nearby schools, it consistently underperforms the state average on standardized tests across all grade levels and subjects.

North Callaway Middle School faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 19.1% to 22.2% over the past few years, well above the state average. Additionally, a large proportion of the school's students (43.11% in 2023-2024) come from low-income families, as indicated by the free and reduced-price lunch program participation rate. When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Chester Boren Middle, Hallsville Middle, and Fulton Middle, North Callaway Middle School consistently underperforms on academic measures, with lower proficiency rates and higher chronic absenteeism.

However, the school's Algebra I proficiency rate is significantly higher than the district and state averages, suggesting some strength in this subject area. Additionally, the nearby Wheeler Middle school, with only 13 students, likely presents unique challenges and opportunities compared to the larger middle schools in the area. Overall, North Callaway Middle School faces significant challenges, but there are also potential areas of strength that could be leveraged to improve student outcomes.

I go to this school and I am in 8th grade I know that some teachers are kind and some others aren't... but that's at every school you go to now days. There are kids that smoke e cigarettes in the bathroom and other children at school love to use put downs, racial slurs and even inappropriate jokes but that's at every school and what it makes it worse is most of the kids are white and don't care, and they act inappropriate, for example in my math class today were humping each other and touching each others breasts but that's normal in this generation and all of the teachers don't get paid enough to care. They'll say "that's enough" or "come on guys it's the fifth week of school", but honestly what do you expect in this generation. The kids in special needs programs can't help what they act like and are yelled at by there teacher Mrs.Drew Close Quote
