Oran High School

Public Grades 7-12

Summary

Oran High School is a public high school serving grades 7-12 in Oran, Missouri, with a total enrollment of 168 students. The school is part of the Oran R-III school district, which is ranked 228 out of 386 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One of Oran High School's key strengths is its consistently high four-year graduation rate, reaching 100% in the 2023-2024 school year. This is significantly higher than nearby schools like Central High (88.3%), Thomas W. Kelly High (96.3%), and Scott County Central High (88.0%). In English I, Oran High School students have consistently scored above the state average, reaching 84.4% proficiency in 2022-2023. However, the school's performance in mathematics has been more mixed, with some grades and subjects exceeding the state average while others fall below.

While Oran High School's graduation rates and English performance are strengths, the school has faced challenges with chronic absenteeism, ranging from 9.1% in 2021-2022 to 20.6% in 2022-2023. This fluctuation is higher than some nearby schools. Additionally, Oran High School has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 37.97% to 43.45% in recent years, which is higher than some of the nearby schools. The school's statewide ranking has also varied significantly over the years, suggesting inconsistent performance. Further investigation into the factors driving these trends could help identify opportunities for improvement and enhance the educational experience for Oran High School students.
