Richland High School is an amazing school! The teachers know their subjects well, and students are able to approach them with any number of questions. Perhaps the curriculum lacks AP classes, but dual credit courses such as Calculus and English 110 are available. I know the number three rating is due to standardized test scores, but I still believe it is an extreme injustice.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 Missouri used the End-of-Course (EOC) Assessments to test high school students in Algebra I, Algebra II, Geometry, English I, English II, American History, Government, and Biology. The EOC Assessments are standards-based, which means they measure how well students are mastering specific skills defined by the state of Missouri for each subject. The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.
