Summary:
The Mexico 59 school district in Missouri consists of 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals a mix of standout and underperforming schools in the district, with significant achievement gaps compared to state averages.
Mexico Middle School stands out as the top performer, with 84% of 8th graders proficient in Algebra I, far exceeding the district and state averages. Meanwhile, Hawthorne Elementary and Eugene Field Elementary have higher English Language Arts proficiency rates, particularly in 4th and 5th grade. However, several schools, such as Mexico High School, have seen declining performance over the past few years.
The district faces challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, varying per-student spending, and significant achievement gaps in mathematics. These findings suggest the need for further investigation and potential improvements to ensure equitable access to resources and address the performance disparities across the schools in the Mexico 59 district.
