Summary:
The La Monte R-IV school district in Missouri is home to a single high school, La Monte High, which serves grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 129 students. While the school has a diverse student population, its academic performance is significantly below state averages, with consistently low test scores across all subjects and grade levels.
La Monte High faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with 59.69% of its students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This high rate of economic disadvantage among the student population may contribute to the school's academic struggles. However, the school does have a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.7, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention to students.
Over the past three school years, La Monte High's statewide ranking has declined, dropping from 312 out of 358 Missouri high schools to 323 out of 352. This trend suggests that the school is facing increasing challenges in keeping pace with other schools in the state, and may require a comprehensive approach to address both academic and non-academic factors impacting student success.
