Summary:
The city of Niangua, Missouri is home to two schools: Niangua Elementary and Niangua High, both part of the Niangua R-V school district. While the data does not reveal any clear standout schools in the area, a closer look at the key metrics and statistics provides insights into the challenges these schools are facing.
Both Niangua Elementary and Niangua High have consistently ranked in the bottom half of Missouri schools, with Niangua Elementary receiving a 2-star rating and Niangua High receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The schools also struggle with significantly lower proficiency rates in Math and English Language Arts compared to the state averages. Additionally, both schools have high chronic absenteeism rates, with Niangua High also having a relatively low four-year graduation rate of 72%.
The data suggests that the Niangua community faces significant economic challenges, with a high percentage of students at both Niangua Elementary and Niangua High receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This, combined with the schools' low academic performance and attendance issues, indicates that a comprehensive approach is needed to address the root causes of the schools' struggles and provide targeted support and resources to improve student outcomes.
