High Schools in Center 58

The Center 58 school district in Missouri has only one high school, Center Senior High, which serves grades 9-12. The data shows that this school is consistently underperforming compared to other high schools in the state, with low rankings, poor test scores, and high chronic absenteeism rates.

Center Senior High has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranks in the bottom third of Missouri high schools. Its test scores in Algebra I, Algebra II, and Biology I are significantly below the state averages, with only around 25% of students proficient or better. The school also struggles with a high chronic absenteeism rate of 36.7%, which likely contributes to the low academic performance. Additionally, the school serves a high-need population, with 62.4% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Despite the school's challenges, it does have some positive attributes, such as a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12:1 and relatively high per-student spending of $18,019. However, these factors do not appear to be translating into improved outcomes for students. Overall, the data suggests that Center Senior High faces significant obstacles in providing a quality education to its students and will likely require targeted interventions and support to improve its performance.
