Summary:
The Gasconade County R-I district in Missouri has one elementary school, Hermann Elementary, which serves grades PK-3 and has an enrollment of 252 students. The school has maintained a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three years and is ranked between 331 and 460 out of over 1,000 Missouri elementary schools.
While Hermann Elementary's 3rd-grade proficiency rates in Math and English Language Arts are below the state averages, the school has shown relatively consistent performance over the past few years. However, the school faces some challenges, including a chronic absenteeism rate of 12.1% and a high percentage (51.59%) of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant economic need among the student population. The school's spending per student of $12,894 suggests that the district is allocating significant resources to support the education of its students, but the academic outcomes have not yet reached exceptional levels.
As a small elementary school with only 252 students, Hermann Elementary may benefit from the opportunities for personalized attention and support, but it also faces the challenges of resource allocation and program offerings that come with a smaller school size. The school's performance and the district's overall ranking of 251 out of 367 districts in Missouri suggest that there is room for improvement, and the school and district may need to focus on addressing the needs of their student population, particularly in the areas of chronic absenteeism and academic achievement.
