Mountain Grove R-III

Summary:

The Mountain Grove R-III school district in Missouri operates three schools: Mountain Grove Elementary, Mountain Grove Middle, and Mountain Grove High. The district serves a predominantly white student population, with over 93% of students identifying as white across all three schools.

Among the three schools, Mountain Grove Middle School stands out as the highest performer, consistently ranking in the top 25% of Missouri middle schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's math, science, and English Language Arts proficiency rates exceed state averages, and it has a relatively low free/reduced lunch rate of 59.45% compared to the other schools in the district.

While the district as a whole appears to be performing well, with low student-teacher ratios and significant investments in resources, there are areas for improvement. The high free/reduced lunch rates across all schools indicate a need to closely monitor the academic progress and support services for economically disadvantaged students. Additionally, the decline in Mountain Grove Elementary's state ranking from 2020-2021 to 2022-2023 is concerning and warrants further analysis to identify potential areas for improvement at the elementary level.
