Atlas Public Schools

Summary:

The Atlas Public Schools district in Missouri consists of a single public charter elementary school, Atlas Elementary, serving grades PK-3 with a total enrollment of 307 students.

While there are no clear standout schools in the data set, a closer examination of Atlas Elementary reveals some areas of concern. The school has a very high chronic absenteeism rate of 49.8%, significantly higher than the state average. Academically, the school's performance is mixed, with 3rd-grade English Language Arts scores above the state average but mathematics and 4th-grade ELA scores well below the state average.

Additionally, Atlas Elementary serves a high-poverty student population, with 100% of its students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the district's higher-than-average spending of $17,395 per student, the school's academic performance suggests that the resources may not be translating into improved student outcomes. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.7 to 1 is generally considered a positive indicator, but the data indicates that the school may need to focus on improving its instructional strategies, particularly in mathematics and upper-elementary ELA.
