Seymour R-II

The Seymour R-II school district in Missouri consists of three schools: Seymour Elementary, Seymour High, and Seymour Middle. The district has shown steady improvement in its academic performance, with both Seymour High and Seymour Middle schools improving their statewide rankings in recent years.

Seymour High School stands out with a 4-year graduation rate of 87.1% and a dropout rate of 3.5%, both of which are better than the state averages. Seymour Middle School also impresses with its 8th-grade test scores in mathematics, science, and English language arts exceeding the state averages. However, the district faces challenges, such as Seymour Elementary's test scores in mathematics and English language arts being generally below the state averages, and all three schools having a chronic absenteeism rate higher than the state's target.

Socioeconomic factors also play a role, with the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch ranging from 34.94% at Seymour Middle to 39.48% at Seymour Elementary, indicating a relatively high level of economic need in the district. The district's spending per student also varies, with Seymour High spending the most at $12,718 per student and Seymour Middle spending the least at $8,834 per student.
