Summary

Holland Elementary is a public elementary school in Springfield, Missouri, serving 232 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Springfield R-XII district, which is ranked 177 out of 367 districts in the state.

While Holland Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Missouri elementary schools, the school performs better in English Language Arts than in mathematics, with 3rd-grade proficiency rates often exceeding the district and state averages. However, the school's overall performance on state assessments is generally below the district and state averages, particularly in mathematics. For example, in 2024-2025, only 37.7% of 3rd graders at Holland Elementary were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to 35% for the district and 41.4% for the state.

One interesting finding is that despite the high percentage of students from low-income backgrounds (75% qualify for free or reduced-price lunch), Holland Elementary has performed relatively well for this subgroup, ranking in the top 25% of Missouri elementary schools in 2023-2024. When compared to nearby schools, such as Walt Disney Elementary, which consistently outperforms Holland Elementary across all grade levels and subject areas, the school faces significant challenges. Additionally, Holland Elementary has struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 25.9% to 38.7% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the district and state averages.
