Summary

Woodridge Middle School is a public middle school located in High Ridge, Missouri, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 545 students. The school is part of the Northwest R-I School District, which is ranked 123 out of 367 districts in Missouri and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Woodridge Middle School faces several challenges, including consistently higher chronic absenteeism rates compared to the state and district averages. In the 2023-2024 school year, the school had a 19.7% chronic absenteeism rate, which is significantly higher than the state average of 12.7% at Truman Middle School and 15.6% at Washington Middle School. Additionally, Woodridge Middle School's test scores in Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) are generally lower than the state and district averages, with only 22.9% of 8th-grade students proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 32.7% statewide and 26.8% in the Northwest R-I district.

When comparing Woodridge Middle School to other nearby middle schools, it becomes evident that Woodridge is underperforming in several key areas. For instance, Truman Middle School, which is part of the Lindbergh Schools district, consistently outperforms Woodridge in test scores, with significantly higher percentages of students proficient or better in Mathematics and ELA across all grade levels. Additionally, Woodridge Middle School's performance on various student subgroups, such as special education and gifted and talented, is also a concern, as the school ranks relatively low compared to other Missouri middle schools in these areas.
