Summary:
The East Buchanan County C-1 school district in Missouri is home to three schools: East Buchanan Elementary, East Buchanan High, and East Buchanan Middle. The district has consistently high-performing schools, with two of the three schools ranked in the top half of their respective categories statewide.
East Buchanan Middle School stands out as a top performer, ranked 72nd out of 451 Missouri middle schools in 2023-2024 with a 4-star rating. The school has maintained exceptional academic results, with 86.9% of students proficient or better in Algebra I and 61.8% of 8th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, significantly outpacing state averages.

While the district as a whole appears to be performing well, with strong academic results and financial investment in education, there are some potential equity concerns. East Buchanan Elementary has the highest free and reduced lunch rate in the district, which may suggest the need for further investigation into ensuring all students have access to the same opportunities for success.
