Summary:
The Oak Grove R-VI school district in Missouri is home to two elementary schools: Oak Grove Primary (grades PK-2) and Oak Grove Elementary (grades 3-5). While the schools do not stand out as exceptional performers, they provide a relatively average education within the district and state.
Both Oak Grove Primary and Oak Grove Elementary have similar characteristics, with Oak Grove Primary serving 504 students and Oak Grove Elementary serving 442 students. The district as a whole is ranked 174 out of 367 in Missouri and is rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. Academically, the schools' proficiency rates on the MAP tests are generally below the state averages, with the exception of a few grade levels. Additionally, both schools have a high chronic absenteeism rate of 19.5%, which may be an area of concern for the district.
In terms of resources, the two schools have comparable per-student spending and student-teacher ratios, suggesting an even distribution of resources across the elementary schools. However, the higher free and reduced-price lunch rate at Oak Grove Elementary (33.94%) compared to Oak Grove Primary (25.79%) may be a contributing factor to the school's slightly lower academic performance.
