This standout institution ranks in the top 20% of Missouri high schools and has maintained a consistent 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three years, indicating its commitment to delivering high-quality education.

Jefferson High School boasts exceptional academic performance, with proficiency rates on state assessments generally higher than the district and state averages, particularly in Algebra I and Biology I. The school's 100% four-year graduation rate and low dropout rate of 1.9% are also impressive achievements, suggesting strong student retention and success. However, the school's Algebra II proficiency lags behind the state average, presenting an opportunity for improvement.

Exploring how the school leverages these resources to address the needs of all students, including those from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds, could provide valuable insights for the district and the broader community.
