Summary:
Crawford County R-I in Missouri is home to a single high school, Bourbon High School, which serves grades 9-12. While the school has a relatively small student population of 271, it faces some academic challenges compared to state-level performance.
Bourbon High School's proficiency rates in Algebra I (10%) and Biology I (35.4%) are significantly lower than the Missouri state averages of 41.5% and 38.5%, respectively. The school's statewide ranking has also declined from 177th out of 358 Missouri high schools in 2020-2021 to 229th out of 352 in 2022-2023, with a corresponding drop in its SchoolDigger rating from 3 stars to 2 stars. This suggests that the school's academic performance has declined relative to other high schools in the state.
Additionally, Bourbon High School serves a predominantly low-income student population, with 50.55% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the district's Crawford County R-I spending $10,361 per student, which is above the state average, and having a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13:1, the school's academic performance remains below state standards. This indicates that the allocation and utilization of resources may need to be evaluated to better support student learning and achievement.
