Summary:
The Crocker R-II school district in Missouri operates two schools: Crocker High and Crocker Elementary. Based on the available data, neither school appears to be a standout performer, as both are ranked and rated significantly below the state average.
Crocker High is ranked 337 out of 378 Missouri high schools and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates on MAP tests are consistently below the state averages across all subjects and grade levels. Additionally, Crocker High has a lower-than-average four-year graduation rate and a higher-than-average dropout rate. Crocker Elementary, on the other hand, has a mixed performance, with some grades performing better than the state average in math, while others perform much worse.
Both schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients. Despite the relatively low student-teacher ratios and higher-than-average per-student spending, the schools continue to struggle to achieve better outcomes. This suggests that the issue may not be solely about resource allocation, but rather the effectiveness of the district's educational strategies and the need for targeted interventions to address the persistent underperformance of its schools.
