Summary:

Harding Independence (Charter) includes three schools: an elementary, a middle and a high school. In 2025–2026, the high school led the schools in English Language Arts I and U.S. History, while all three schools’ all-grades mathematics results were below the state figure. The most important contrast for families is that the high school’s strong 2025–2026 test results sit beside a 2024–2025 graduation rate of 45%, compared with 78% statewide—a 33-point shortfall.

Harding Charter Preparatory High School stands out in all-grades ELA I, at 54% versus 21% at Harding Charter Preparatory Middle School at Independence, a 33-point gap; the Harding Charter Preparatory Elementary School at Kelley scored 26%, equal to the state. The high school also reached 64% in U.S. History, 23 points above the state. Mathematics was weaker across the area: results ranged from 19% to 24%, all below the state’s 25%. The middle school’s grade-level results vary sharply: grade 8 ELA I was 33%, 13 points above state, and grade 8 science was 45%, 9 points above; grade 5 science was 11%, 24 points below state, and grade 7 mathematics was 13%, 13 points below.

Results moved in different directions over time. From 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, the high school’s ELA I, mathematics, science and U.S. History scores fell by 8, 13, 16 and 14 points, respectively; middle school ELA I rose 3 points, mathematics was unchanged, and science fell 4 points. SchoolDigger ranks the middle school at the 57th percentile in 2025–2026, up from the 13th percentile in 2023–2024; the high school was at the 90th percentile, below its earlier 98th-percentile ranking in 2024–2025. The 2024–2025 student-teacher ratios were 17 at the high school, 16.8 at the middle school and 15 at the elementary school. For context, free/reduced lunch eligible shares in 2024–2025 were 60% at the high school, 74% at the middle school and 47% at the elementary school; these figures describe the schools but do not explain their results. The elementary school has no 2024–2025 test results, so year-to-year comparisons cover only the high and middle schools.
