Summary:

The Gasconade County R-II school district in Missouri operates 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools (Owensville Elementary and Gerald Elementary), 1 middle school (Owensville Middle), and 1 high school (Owensville High). The district faces challenges in academic achievement, with most schools performing below state averages, particularly in the upper grades.

Gerald Elementary stands out as a relatively stronger performer, exceeding district and state averages in 3rd grade math and English language arts proficiency. However, it also has a high chronic absenteeism rate and lower proficiency in 5th grade math and science. Owensville High maintains a high 4-year graduation rate and has a relatively low dropout rate, but its academic performance on End of Course exams lags behind state averages.

Across the district, student demographics indicate a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a relatively high level of economic disadvantage. Resource allocation also varies, with Gerald Elementary having the highest spending per student and the lowest student-teacher ratio. Addressing the district's chronic absenteeism rates and improving overall proficiency levels compared to state averages should be key priorities for the Gasconade County R-II school district.
