Elementary Schools in Spokane R-Vii

Summary:

The Spokane R-Vii school district in Missouri has only one elementary school, Highlandville Elementary, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. While the school has some positive attributes, it also faces challenges that are worth noting.

Highlandville Elementary's performance has been inconsistent, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 416 out of 906 Missouri elementary schools in 2023-2024 and 508 out of 900 in 2024-2025. The school's performance on standardized tests is generally below the state average, with only 16.2% of 4th-grade students proficient or better in Math in 2024-2025, compared to the state average of 43.8%. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (42.01% in 2023-2024) and a chronic absenteeism rate of 20.8% in 2023-2024, both of which are indicators of economic disadvantage.

Despite these challenges, Highlandville Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.5, and its per-student spending for the 2021-2022 school year was slightly above the state average at $10,091. These factors suggest that the school may be allocating resources effectively to support student learning, but more targeted interventions and support may be needed to address the school's academic performance and demographic challenges.
