Summary

Wright City Middle is a public middle school serving grades 6-8 in Wright City, Missouri, with 388 students. The school is part of the Wright City R-II of Warren County school district, which is ranked 182 out of 367 districts in Missouri and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Wright City Middle's performance on standardized tests is generally below the state averages across grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the percentage of 8th-grade students proficient or better in Math was 46.9% at Wright City Middle, compared to the state average of 32.7%. However, the school's performance on English Language Arts (ELA) tests is more mixed, with 8th-grade ELA proficiency at 46.9%, which is higher than the state average of 42.2%. Compared to nearby schools, such as Ft. Zumwalt North Middle, Wright City Middle generally underperforms in both Math and ELA.

Another area of concern for Wright City Middle is its high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 23.7% to 35.5% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 41.8% to 49.62% over the past few years, which is higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools. These socioeconomic challenges may contribute to the school's academic underperformance.
