Best Public Schools in Wellsville, MO

Summary:

The Wellsville, Missouri school district consists of two schools: Wellsville-Middletown High School and Wellsville-Middletown Elementary School. Both schools are underperforming compared to the state average, with the high school ranked in the bottom third of Missouri high schools and the elementary school in the bottom 10% of Missouri elementary schools.

The high school has maintained a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past 5 years, indicating below-average performance, while the elementary school has a 1-star rating, indicating poor performance. Both schools have a high percentage of students (over 50%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a relatively low-income student population. The schools also have a predominantly white student population, with limited racial diversity.

Despite the small student-teacher ratios at both schools, which could be a positive factor, the academic performance remains poor. The per-student spending is higher than the state average, but the schools are still struggling to achieve better results, raising questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources within the Wellsville Middletown R-I school district. The district as a whole appears to be facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students, and may benefit from a comprehensive review and implementation of strategies to address these issues.
