Summary:
The city of Bismarck, Missouri is home to two public schools: Bismarck R-V High and Bismarck R-V Elementary, both serving students in the Bismarck R-V school district. Based on the available data, these schools are performing below average compared to other schools in the state, with both receiving a 1 or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Enrollment at the high school is 270 students, while the elementary school has 196 students. Both schools have a 100% free/reduced lunch rate, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. Chronic absenteeism is also a concern, with 15.1% of students at both schools missing an excessive amount of school. Academically, the schools struggle, with significantly lower proficiency rates on state assessments compared to the state averages across various subjects and grade levels.
The schools also face challenges in terms of resources and staffing, with Bismarck R-V High spending $10,697 per student and Bismarck R-V Elementary spending $10,063 per student, and student-teacher ratios of 12.8 and 10.8, respectively. Additionally, the schools' statewide rankings have been declining in recent years, suggesting they are not keeping pace with improvements in other Missouri schools. Addressing these issues will be crucial for improving the educational outcomes in the Bismarck R-V schools.
