Summary:

The 65668 zip code in Missouri is home to a single high school, Hermitage High, which serves students in grades 9-12. Based on the available data, Hermitage High does not appear to be a standout performer among Missouri high schools, consistently ranking in the bottom half of the state's high school rankings in recent years and earning a low 1-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger.com.

While Hermitage High boasts an impressive 100% four-year graduation rate for the 2023-2024 school year, its academic performance lags behind the state average. The school's proficiency rates on the Algebra I End of Course exam are significantly lower than the state average, with only 33.4% of students scoring proficient or better in 2024-2025 compared to the state average of 45.4%. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rate of 7.2% for 2023-2024 is slightly higher than the state average.

Despite the high spending per student of $17,723, which exceeds the state average, and a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.6 to 1, Hermitage High's academic struggles persist. This suggests that the school may be facing significant challenges in serving its high-poverty student population, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. While the school's focus on graduation is commendable, the data indicates a need for further investigation and potential interventions to improve student learning and academic achievement at Hermitage High.
