Purdy R-II


Summary:

The Purdy R-II school district in Missouri is home to two schools: Purdy Elementary and Purdy High. While the district has some standout elements, such as a high percentage of Hispanic students, it also faces challenges, particularly in the area of academic performance.

Purdy Elementary has a notably high percentage of Hispanic students at 34%, significantly higher than the state average. However, both Purdy Elementary and Purdy High have lower than average test scores, particularly in mathematics, with only 20% of 7th graders and 11.3% of 8th graders at Purdy High meeting proficiency standards, compared to the state averages of 39.5% and 30% respectively.

While Purdy High has seen an improvement in its statewide ranking over the past few years, Purdy Elementary has experienced a decline, suggesting the need for the district to closely examine its curriculum, instructional practices, and resource allocation to address these performance issues and support the academic success of all students.
