Stoutland High has struggled academically, with consistently low test scores on the MAP assessments that are significantly below the state averages. The school's four-year graduation rate is 89.1%, and it has a 6.6% dropout rate. Chronic absenteeism is also high at 17.0%. Additionally, over 55% of Stoutland High's students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-poverty population that can present additional challenges.
The school's performance has been declining relative to other high schools in Missouri, with its statewide ranking dropping from 324 out of 358 in 2020-2021 to 323 out of 378 in 2023-2024. Despite the high spending per student ($11,300) and low student-teacher ratio (9.7), the school's academic outcomes suggest that the resources may not be effectively utilized to support student success. Addressing the underlying issues and developing targeted interventions will be crucial for improving the performance of Stoutland High and the Stoutland R-II school district as a whole.
