Economic need runs somewhat above the state's typical profile, with 61.5% of students eligible for free meals.
Enrollment of 112 puts it in the smaller third of Missouri schools by headcount.
Its Resource Investment Index lands in the lower third of 2,313 scored Missouri schools.

Its student body is predominantly White (86% of enrollment) (diversity index 26/100).
Counselor access is stretched at roughly 1120 students per counselor, well above the ASCA-recommended 250:1 ceiling.
Chronic absenteeism is elevated: 25.9% of students missed 10% or more of school days (2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection).
Its district draws 27.4% of revenue from federal sources, an above-typical federal share that tends to track a higher-need student population.
