Summary:
The city of Clifton Hill, Missouri has only one public middle school, Westran Middle School, which serves grades 6-8 and has a total enrollment of 134 students. While the school has performed well on state assessments in some areas, its statewide ranking has declined in recent years, dropping from 103rd out of 454 Missouri middle schools in 2020-2021 to 220th out of 459 in 2022-2023.
Westran Middle School's student population is predominantly white (91.04%), with relatively low representation of other racial and ethnic groups. The school also serves a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 59.7% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests that the school may face challenges in addressing the needs of its diverse student population and supporting students from low-income families.
Despite these challenges, Westran Middle School has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.5, and its per-student spending for the 2021-2022 school year was $13,550. However, the school's academic performance on state assessments is mixed, with students scoring above the state average in Mathematics but below the state average in Science and English Language Arts. This indicates a need for the school to identify and address specific areas of academic weakness to improve student outcomes.
