Summary:
The city of Versailles, Missouri is home to 3 schools serving grades K-12: Morgan County Elementary, Morgan County High, and Morgan County Middle. These schools are part of the Morgan County R-II school district and serve the local community.
While there are no clear standout schools in the district, some observations can be made. Morgan County High School has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 93.6%, which is a positive indicator. Additionally, Morgan County Middle School had a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger in 2021-2022, the highest among the 3 schools. However, test scores across all 3 schools are generally below the state averages in mathematics, science, and English language arts.
A key concern is the high chronic absenteeism rate of 21.2% across all 3 schools, which is significantly higher than the state's target of 10% or less. Additionally, the schools serve a population with relatively high free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 51.08% at Morgan County High to 59.15% at Morgan County Elementary. The district should focus on addressing these systemic issues to improve the educational outcomes for its students.
