Hickman Mills C-1

The Hickman Mills C-1 school district in Missouri serves 10 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 357 out of 386 school districts in the state and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, indicating significant challenges in student performance and outcomes.

However, the data reveals a few standout schools within the district. Warford Elementary ranks the highest among the district's elementary schools, at 782 out of 906 Missouri elementary schools. It has the highest proficiency rates in math and English language arts across multiple grade levels compared to the district and state averages. Compass Elementary and Truman Elementary also stand out, ranking 664 and 780 respectively, and demonstrating strong performance in key subject areas.

Despite these pockets of relative success, the district as a whole faces significant challenges. Across all schools, the chronic absenteeism rate is an alarming 36.7%, well above the state average. Additionally, the district's proficiency rates on state assessments are starkly low compared to state averages, with most schools performing at least 15-20 percentage points below the state in math, science, and English language arts. These issues, coupled with the district's 100% free/reduced lunch rate, indicate that the Hickman Mills C-1 schools serve a population facing substantial economic disadvantages that likely impact student learning and achievement.
