Summary:
The city of Carrollton, Missouri is home to three public schools - one elementary school, one middle school, and one high school - all part of the Carrollton R-Vii school district. While the schools generally perform below the state average on standardized tests, the Carrollton Senior High School stands out with a 100% four-year graduation rate and a ranking in the top half of Missouri high schools.
The elementary school and middle school also perform respectably, with the middle school ranking in the top half of Missouri middle schools. However, all three schools struggle with high chronic absenteeism rates, exceeding the state's target of 10%. Additionally, the schools serve a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with free and reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 34% at the high school to 46% at the elementary school.
While the schools in Carrollton maintain a consistent 2-3 star rating from SchoolDigger, the data suggests areas for improvement, such as addressing chronic absenteeism and supporting economically disadvantaged students. The district may also want to examine its resource allocation, as the high school spends significantly more per student than the elementary and middle schools.
