Summary:
The Morgan County R-I school district in Missouri has only one high school, Morgan County R-I High, which serves grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 420 students. The district is ranked 198 out of 386 districts in Missouri and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.
Morgan County R-I High has a standout 100% four-year graduation rate, but also faces some challenges. The school's math and English language arts proficiency rates are generally lower than the state averages, particularly in 6th and 7th grade. However, the school's Algebra I and Biology I end-of-course proficiency rates are closer to the state averages. Additionally, the school has a very high percentage of students (99.29%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
While the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.2 and high spending per student of $10,162 suggest that the district is allocating resources to support the school, the academic performance data indicates that these resources may not be translating into consistently strong student outcomes. The school's statewide ranking has also dropped from 102 out of 352 Missouri high schools in 2022-2023 to 157 out of 378 in 2023-2024, indicating a potential decline in performance or relative standing compared to other schools in the state.
