Summary:
The 64725 zip code is home to a single public high school, Archie High School, which serves grades 6-12 and is part of the Archie R-V school district. Archie High School has a total enrollment of 283 students and a 96.0% four-year graduation rate, which is above the state average. However, the school has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 14.0% and mixed academic performance compared to state averages, with strengths in certain subject areas but weaknesses in others.
Archie High School's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, from 122 out of 352 schools in 2022-2023 to 284 out of 367 schools in 2024-2025. The school's test scores are above the state average in 6th and 7th grade mathematics, as well as in the Biology I end-of-course exam, but below average in Algebra I, Algebra II, and 8th grade English Language Arts. The school has a relatively high percentage of students (33.57%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students.
Despite these challenges, Archie High School's lower student-teacher ratio of 11.5 suggests smaller class sizes, which could be a positive factor in supporting student learning. Overall, Archie High School appears to be a relatively average-performing school, with some areas of strength and some areas that could use improvement. The school may benefit from a closer examination of its academic programs, attendance policies, and support for economically disadvantaged students to help improve its overall performance and outcomes.
