Summary

Black Hawk Middle is a public middle school in Warrenton, Missouri, serving 673 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Warren County R-III School District. While the district is ranked 201 out of 367 in Missouri, Black Hawk Middle faces several key challenges that impact its academic performance.

Academically, Black Hawk Middle's test scores on the MAP assessments are generally below the state and district averages across various subjects and grade levels. This is particularly evident in Mathematics, where 8th-grade proficiency rates have consistently remained below 25% in recent years, significantly lower than nearby schools like Frontier Middle, Washington Middle, and schools in the Wentzville R-IV district. Additionally, Black Hawk Middle has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 24.6% to 27.8%, which is significantly higher than the state average and nearby schools.

Socioeconomic factors may also play a role, as Black Hawk Middle has a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 40.87% to 46.51% in recent years. This is higher than the state average and the rates of many nearby schools. Furthermore, the school's performance on MAP tests for specific student subgroups, such as African American and Hispanic students, is generally lower than the state averages for those subgroups, indicating a need for targeted interventions and support to ensure equity and success for all students.
