Summary

Spokane Middle is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in Spokane, Missouri, with an enrollment of 159 students. While part of the Spokane R-Vii District, which is ranked 141 out of 367 districts in the state, Spokane Middle faces several challenges compared to nearby middle schools.

Spokane Middle has generally lower test scores than the state and district averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Science. For example, in 2024-2025, only 33.9% of 6th graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to the state average of 39.3%. The school also has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20.8% to 31.0% in recent years, significantly higher than the nearby Ozark Middle School (16.2%) and Nicholas A. Inman Intermediate (13.1%). Additionally, Spokane Middle has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 37.5% to 44.22% in recent years, higher than the nearby schools.

Spokane Middle's performance has declined over the years, as evidenced by its drop in statewide ranking from 89th out of 435 Missouri middle schools in 2015-2016 to 209th out of 438 in 2024-2025. The school's performance is particularly low for its White and Low Socioeconomic Status student subgroups, ranking 262nd out of 358 Missouri middle schools for its White students and 306th out of 369 for its Low SES students in 2024-2025. Addressing the underlying issues of high chronic absenteeism and a relatively disadvantaged student population could be a focus for the school and Spokane R-Vii District to improve student outcomes.
