Elementary Schools in Fort Zumwalt School District

Summary:

The Fort Zumwalt School District in Missouri is home to 17 elementary schools serving students from kindergarten through 5th grade. The district as a whole is highly ranked, coming in at 37th out of 367 districts in the state and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Within the district, a few schools stand out as top performers. Ostmann Elementary and Emge Elementary are both ranked among the top 100 elementary schools in Missouri, with exceptional math and English language arts proficiency rates. Pheasant Point Elementary also stands out with strong academic performance and a 4-star rating. In contrast, some schools like Dardenne Elementary and Lewis Clark Elementary have lower proficiency rates and higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.

Across the district, chronic absenteeism is a concern, with all schools reporting a 17.6% rate, higher than the state average. Spending per student also varies, from $10,843 at Lewis Clark Elementary to $14,780 at Ostmann Elementary. However, the highest-spending schools do not necessarily have the best academic outcomes, suggesting that factors beyond just funding, such as instructional quality and school leadership, play a significant role in student achievement.
