Summary

St. Clair Junior High is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in the St. Clair R-XIII school district in Saint Clair, Missouri. With 448 students, the school is ranked 327 out of 438 Missouri middle schools and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, St. Clair Junior High faces significant challenges. The school's test scores are consistently below state averages across all grade levels and subjects, with only 19.9% of 6th graders proficient or better in Math compared to the state average of 45.5%. The school also has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20.7% to 23.3% over the past few years, which is much higher than the state average. Additionally, the school has a relatively high proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with 46.24% to 52.75% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

When compared to nearby middle schools, such as Bourbon Middle School and Union Middle School, St. Clair Junior High generally performs worse on test scores and has higher chronic absenteeism rates. The school's spending per student, while increasing over time, is still lower than some of the nearby schools. These factors suggest the need for improvement in areas such as instructional quality, student engagement, and support for disadvantaged students.
