Summary:
The city of Ravenwood, Missouri is home to two schools: Northeast Nodaway Elementary and Northeast Nodaway High, both part of the Northeast Nodaway County R-V school district. While Northeast Nodaway Elementary has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, it maintains strong 5th-grade English Language Arts proficiency. In contrast, Northeast Nodaway High has experienced a significant drop in its statewide ranking and struggles with low proficiency rates on End-of-Course exams.
Northeast Nodaway Elementary has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate, but serves a population with a higher level of economic need, with 34.92% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Meanwhile, Northeast Nodaway High maintains an impressive 100% four-year graduation rate, despite its academic performance challenges. Both schools have a significant percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, with 36.17% of Northeast Nodaway High students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
The data highlights both strengths and areas for improvement within the Ravenwood school system. The declining statewide rankings and stark contrast in academic performance between the elementary and high school suggest that the district may need to focus on targeted interventions and support to address these challenges and better serve its students, regardless of their economic background.
