Summary:
The Crystal City 47 school district in Missouri has one elementary school, Crystal City Elementary, which serves grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 318 students. The school has a predominantly White student population (86.48%), with smaller percentages of African American (10.38%) and Hispanic (2.83%) students.
Academically, Crystal City Elementary's mathematics and science proficiency rates are generally higher than the state averages, but they still fall short in some grade levels, particularly 3rd grade mathematics. The school's 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and consistent ranking over the past three years suggest its performance has been relatively stable. However, the high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (50.31%) indicates the school serves a population with significant economic challenges, which may contribute to its academic performance.
The school's student-teacher ratio of 11.9 to 1 is relatively low, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention and support for students. Additionally, the district's spending of $12,579 per student is higher than the state average, suggesting a potential investment in the school's resources and infrastructure. Overall, while Crystal City Elementary has some areas of strength, it also faces challenges related to academic performance and socioeconomic factors, which may require continued monitoring and targeted interventions to improve the overall quality of education for its students.
