Summary:
The Staples-Motley School District is home to a single high school, Staples-Motley Senior High, which serves 335 students in grades 9-12. The school's student population is predominantly White (88.96%), with smaller percentages of Hispanic, Native American, and multiracial students.
Academically, Staples-Motley Senior High has shown some fluctuations in its performance on the MCA-III assessments. While the school's 11th-grade math proficiency was above the state average in 2022-2023, it declined to slightly above the state average in 2023-2024. Similarly, the school's 10th-grade reading proficiency dropped from below the state average in 2022-2023 to further below the state average in 2023-2024. However, the school's science proficiency rates, both for the end-of-course assessment and overall, have been consistently above the state average in the past two years.
Despite these academic challenges, Staples-Motley Senior High has a commendable four-year graduation rate of 95.4% in 2021-2022, significantly higher than the state average. However, the school's dropout rate of 4.5% for the same year is also noteworthy, as it is higher than the state's average. Additionally, the relatively high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (36.12%) suggests that the school serves a population with a significant socioeconomic need.
