Summary:

Oran High School is a public high school located in Oran, Missouri, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 187 students. The school is part of the Oran R-III School District, which is ranked 228 out of 386 districts in Missouri and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Oran High School has consistently maintained a high four-year graduation rate, reaching 100% in the 2023-2024 school year, significantly higher than the state average and the graduation rates of nearby schools like Central High (88.3%) and Thomas W. Kelly High (96.3%). However, the school's performance on the MAP (Missouri Assessment Program) tests has been more mixed, with students excelling in English Language Arts but struggling in mathematics, particularly in Algebra II. Additionally, Oran High School has experienced fluctuations in its chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 9.1% to 20.6%, which is higher than the state average and the rates of nearby schools like Bell City High (6.6%) and Delta High (11.6%).

Oran High School serves a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 35.5% to 42.86% in recent years, which is higher than the rates of nearby schools like Central High (0.22%) and Scott City High (38.85%). This suggests that the school serves a socioeconomically disadvantaged population, which may require additional resources and support to address the unique needs of these students and ensure they have access to the same educational opportunities as their peers.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
