Summary:
The 65633 zip code is home to a single high school, Crane High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the school boasts a 100% four-year graduation rate, it has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 176th out of 378 Missouri high schools in 2023-2024 to 203rd out of 367 in 2024-2025, with a 2-star rating out of 5.
Crane High School faces several challenges, including a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 17.3% and consistently lower-than-average test scores in subjects like 8th-grade Math, 7th-grade English Language Arts, Algebra I, and Biology I. Additionally, the school serves a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 48.72% of its population receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite these challenges, the school maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11:1, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention and support for students.
Overall, the data suggests that Crane R-III district and Crane High School may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to address the school's declining performance, high chronic absenteeism, and academic underachievement, particularly among its economically disadvantaged student population.
