Summary:
The Atlanta C-3 district in Atlanta, Missouri, has two schools: Atlanta Elementary (grades K-6) and Atlanta High (grades 7-12). Atlanta Elementary stands out as a high-performing school, consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in the state and achieving exceptional test scores, particularly in mathematics. In contrast, Atlanta High has a lower ranking and performance compared to the elementary school, suggesting potential areas for improvement at the high school level.
Atlanta Elementary boasts a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and impressive test scores, with 73.7% of fourth-grade students proficient or better in math, compared to 73.7% in the district and 43.8% statewide. However, the school's racial demographics are predominantly white, with very low representation of other racial groups. Additionally, the free/reduced lunch rate at Atlanta Elementary is relatively high at 41.51%, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students.
While Atlanta High has a lower ranking and performance compared to the elementary school, the spending per student is higher at $13,349, compared to $10,149 at Atlanta Elementary. This may suggest a need to evaluate the allocation of resources and their impact on student outcomes. The student-teacher ratios are relatively low at both schools, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention to students.
