Marceline High stands out for its consistently strong academic performance, ranking in the top 15% of Missouri high schools and outperforming the state average on state assessments, particularly in Biology I. The school has a lower percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (around 30-37%) compared to some nearby schools, such as Meadville High, which may indicate a higher socioeconomic status. Marceline High also spends more per student ($11,479 in 2021-2022) and has a lower student-teacher ratio of around 12-14 students per teacher, which are factors that likely contribute to the school's academic success.

However, Marceline High's student population is predominantly white, with over 90% of students identifying as such in recent years, which is higher than the state average and the racial makeup of some nearby schools, such as Linn County High and Keytesville High. While Marceline High outperforms many nearby schools, there are exceptions, like Meadville High, which has a higher ranking and stronger academic performance in certain areas.

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.
