Summary:
The Excelsior Springs 40 school district in Missouri is home to 4 elementary schools: Cornerstone Elementary, Lewis Elementary, Elkhorn Elementary, and Excelsior Springs Ear Children Center. These schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and are part of the Excelsior Springs 40 district, which is ranked 224 out of 367 districts in Missouri.
Among the schools, Elkhorn Elementary stands out as the highest-performing, ranking 374 out of 900 Missouri elementary schools and earning a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. Elkhorn Elementary outperformed the district and state averages in mathematics proficiency for 3rd and 5th grades, and had the highest 5th grade English Language Arts proficiency rate at 48.9%. In contrast, the other schools in the district generally perform below the state averages in mathematics and English Language Arts proficiency.
The data also reveals some areas of concern across the district, such as the high chronic absenteeism rate of 21.7%, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, the schools have a significant percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 46.88% to 62.37%, suggesting a relatively high proportion of students from low-income families in the district. These factors may contribute to the overall lower academic performance compared to the state averages and highlight the need for targeted interventions to address equity and access issues within the Excelsior Springs 40 school district.
