Summary:
The Greenville R-II school district in Missouri is home to two elementary schools: Greenville Elementary and Williamsville Elementary. Both schools serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and face significant challenges in providing quality education to their students.
Neither Greenville Elementary nor Williamsville Elementary stand out as high-performing schools. Greenville Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of Missouri elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Williamsville Elementary has had a more varied performance, ranking in the top 20% in some years but dropping to the bottom 50% in others. Both schools perform significantly below the state averages in mathematics and English language arts proficiency across all grade levels, with Greenville Elementary's 3rd-grade mathematics proficiency at just 13.6% compared to the state average of 41.4%.
Chronic absenteeism is a major issue for both schools, with both reporting rates of 25.6% for the 2023-2024 school year. Additionally, the schools serve economically disadvantaged student populations, with Greenville Elementary having a 62.32% free and reduced lunch rate and Williamsville Elementary having a 75.44% rate, both significantly higher than the state average. While the schools have similar spending per student, the student-teacher ratios differ, with Greenville Elementary having a higher ratio of 12.6 and Williamsville Elementary having a lower ratio of 8.6, suggesting a potential imbalance in resource allocation within the district.
