Summary:
The Holcomb R-III school district in Missouri operates two schools: Holcomb Elementary and Holcomb High. While both schools serve a student population with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility, the data shows that Holcomb High School outperforms Holcomb Elementary in several key areas.
Holcomb High School has a higher statewide ranking, with a 3-star rating compared to Holcomb Elementary's 1-star rating. Additionally, Holcomb High School has higher proficiency rates on MAP tests across multiple subjects and grade levels, as well as a stronger 4-year graduation rate of 94.4%. In contrast, Holcomb Elementary's statewide ranking has declined over the past few years.
While both schools face challenges, such as high rates of chronic absenteeism and low proficiency rates on MAP tests, particularly in mathematics, the data suggests that Holcomb High School has made significant improvements in recent years. The Holcomb R-III school district may need to focus on addressing these issues and providing equitable educational opportunities to support the success of all its students.
