Summary:
The city of Washburn, Missouri is home to three public schools: Southwest Elementary, Southwest High, and Southwest Middle. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade and are part of the Southwest R-V school district.
Among the standout schools, Southwest High School has a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 95.4% and a chronic absenteeism rate on par with the elementary and middle schools. However, the schools generally underperform the state averages in both math and English language arts proficiency across various grade levels. Southwest Middle School stands out with relatively strong 6th grade math performance but struggles in other grades and subjects.
The data also reveals concerning trends, such as high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting potential socioeconomic challenges that may be impacting the schools' performance. Additionally, the district's overall ranking and ratings indicate a need for district-level improvements to address the underperformance of these schools compared to the state averages.
