Elementary Schools in Centralia R-VI

The Centralia R-VI school district in Missouri is home to two elementary schools: Chance Elementary and Centralia Intermediate. Both schools serve students from kindergarten through 5th grade and are part of the larger Centralia R-VI district.

Based on the available data, Chance Elementary appears to be the stronger performer of the two schools, with a higher 4-star SchoolDigger rating compared to Centralia Intermediate's 3-star rating. Chance Elementary has also shown steady improvement in its statewide ranking over the past few years, moving from 610th out of 1,084 Missouri elementary schools in 2007-2008 to 409th out of 1,074 in 2005-2006. In contrast, Centralia Intermediate's academic performance, while meeting or exceeding state averages, shows room for improvement, particularly in 5th-grade English Language Arts and Science.

The data also reveals some key differences between the two schools. Chance Elementary spends $1,472 more per student than Centralia Intermediate, which may contribute to the performance gap. Additionally, Chance Elementary has a lower student-teacher ratio of 13.6, compared to Centralia Intermediate's 15.8. These factors could impact the level of individual attention and support available to students at each school.
