Summary:

The Brunswick R-II school district in Missouri has only one elementary school, Brunswick Elementary, which serves grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 161 students.

Additionally, the school's SchoolDigger rating has decreased from 4 stars to 2 stars over the same period.

Academically, Brunswick Elementary's proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) are significantly below the state averages, particularly in 5th grade Mathematics (15.5% vs. 38.2% statewide) and 3rd grade ELA (26.4% vs. 41.8% statewide). However, the school's 6th grade Mathematics proficiency rate is remarkably high at 85%, far exceeding the state average of 45.5%.
