Summary:
The 65332 zip code is home to a single public high school, Green Ridge High School, which serves grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 181 students. While the school previously held a 4-star rating in 2017-2018 and a 3-star rating in 2016-2017, its performance has declined in recent years, ranking 304 out of 352 Missouri high schools and receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2022-2023 school year.
Green Ridge High School's academic performance has been uneven, with its 7th grade students scoring significantly higher than the state average in MAP Mathematics, but its 8th grade students performing below the state average in both Mathematics and Science. Additionally, the school's Algebra I and Biology I End of Course exam scores were much lower than the state averages. This suggests that the school may be struggling to maintain consistent academic success across grade levels and subject areas.
With nearly half of its student population eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, Green Ridge High School serves a community with a relatively high poverty rate, which could be a contributing factor to the school's academic challenges and declining performance. Furthermore, the school's spending of $10,737 per student is lower than the state average, which may limit the resources available to support student learning and school improvement efforts. Overall, the data indicates that Green Ridge High School is facing significant challenges and may require targeted interventions to address its performance issues and better support its students.
