Summary:
The Farmington R-Vii school district in Missouri is home to four elementary schools, serving students from kindergarten through 4th grade. These schools have shown a range of academic performance, with a few standouts emerging from the data.
Among the top-performing schools is Washington-Franklin Elementary, which has consistently ranked among the top 338 elementary schools in Missouri and earned a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 school years. The school has outperformed the district and state averages in both Mathematics and English Language Arts proficiency for 3rd and 4th grades, with the highest 4th-grade Mathematics proficiency rate (51.6%) among the four schools in 2023-2024. Another standout is Roosevelt Elementary, which maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2023-2024 school year and outperformed the district and state averages in 4th-grade Mathematics proficiency.
While the schools share some common challenges, such as high chronic absenteeism rates of 22.6% across all four, the data also reveals differences in funding and student-teacher ratios. Truman Learning Center had the highest spending per student at $12,024 for the 2021-2022 school year, but this did not necessarily translate to the best academic outcomes. In contrast, Jefferson Elementary had the lowest student-teacher ratio at 13.0, which may have contributed to its strong performance.
