Summary

Winfield High is a public high school located in Winfield, Missouri, serving grades 9-12 with a student population of 529. The school is part of the Winfield R-IV School District, which is ranked 249 out of 367 districts in Missouri and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Winfield High faces several academic challenges compared to nearby high-performing schools. The school consistently performs below the state average in proficiency rates for end-of-course exams across subjects like Algebra I, Biology I, English II, and Government, with proficiency rates ranging from 17.2% to 44.5% in the 2024-2025 school year, while the state averages were 45.4% to 52.9%. Additionally, Winfield High's four-year graduation rate of 91.0% in 2023-2024 is lower than the state average, and the school's dropout rate has fluctuated between 1.1% and 3.5% in recent years, which is higher than the state's average. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 24.3% to 31.0% in recent years, significantly higher than the state average.

Interestingly, the nearby schools, such as Timberland High, Ft. Zumwalt South High, North Point High, and Ft. Zumwalt West High, which are part of higher-performing school districts, consistently outperform Winfield High in academic metrics, graduation rates, and test scores. These schools have significantly higher proficiency rates on end-of-course exams, ranging from 60% to 90%, compared to Winfield High's lower performance. Addressing these areas of concern should be a priority for Winfield High and the Winfield R-IV School District to improve educational outcomes for its students.
