Summary:
The city of Hayti, Missouri is home to two schools: Mathis Elementary and Hayti High, both of which serve students in the Hayti R-II school district. Unfortunately, the data paints a concerning picture of the educational landscape in Hayti, as both schools appear to be significantly underperforming compared to state averages on various academic measures.
Mathis Elementary and Hayti High have predominantly African American student populations, with 75.2% and 78.95% African American students, respectively. Both schools also have high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant socioeconomic challenges within the district. Despite the high per-student spending at both schools, their academic performance remains poor, with Mathis Elementary ranked 731 out of 898 Missouri elementary schools and Hayti High ranked 344 out of 361 Missouri high schools.
The data suggests that the Hayti school district may benefit from a comprehensive review and implementation of targeted interventions to address the underlying issues contributing to the academic struggles of its students. Addressing the racial disparities and socioeconomic challenges within the district could be crucial steps towards improving educational outcomes and providing a better future for the students of Hayti.
