Mid-Buchanan Senior High

Summary:

Mid-Buchanan Senior High is a public high school in Faucett, Missouri, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 394 students. The school is part of the Buchanan County R-IV school district, which is ranked 57 out of 376 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Mid-Buchanan Senior High stands out for its strong academic performance, consistently outperforming the state average on MAP tests in subjects like 7th grade Mathematics, 8th grade Science, and 7th grade English Language Arts. The school also has a lower student-teacher ratio of 12.7, compared to nearby schools like East Buchanan High (14.1) and Central High (18.5). However, the school's racial makeup is significantly less diverse, with 96.19% of students being white, and its statewide ranking has declined in recent years, from 14th out of 521 Missouri high schools in 2013-2014 to 178th out of 352 in 2022-2023.

Compared to nearby schools, Mid-Buchanan Senior High generally outperforms in terms of test scores and student-teacher ratio, but lags behind in terms of racial diversity and spending per student. The school's declining free/reduced lunch rates, from 19.34% in 2020-2021 to 13.45% in 2022-2023, may indicate a shift in the socioeconomic makeup of the student population, which could have implications for the school's support services and resource allocation. These findings suggest that while Mid-Buchanan Senior High is a strong academic performer, there may be areas for improvement, particularly in addressing racial achievement gaps and maintaining its high level of performance over time.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
