Summary:
The Stoutland R-II school district in Missouri has only one elementary school, Stoutland Elementary, which serves grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 260 students. Based on the available data, Stoutland Elementary is performing below average compared to other elementary schools in the state of Missouri.
Stoutland Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Missouri elementary schools, with a 2-star rating in the 2024-2025 school year and a 1-star rating in the previous two years. The school's test scores are mixed, with some grade levels performing above the state average in mathematics and English Language Arts, but the majority of grades scoring below the state average in all subjects. Additionally, the school has a concerning chronic absenteeism rate of 17% and a high percentage of students (73.08%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
Despite the school's relatively high spending per student ($11,983) and a low student-teacher ratio (13.7 to 1), these factors do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes for the students at Stoutland Elementary. The district may need to explore additional strategies and interventions to support the academic success of its students and address the challenges faced by the school.
