Summary

Crocker Elementary is a public elementary school in Crocker, Missouri, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 251 students. The school is part of the Crocker R-II School District, which is ranked 341 out of 367 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Crocker Elementary faces significant challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 12.8% to 17.5% over the past few years, which are significantly higher than the state average. The school's academic performance, as measured by MAP test scores, is also consistently below the state averages across various grade levels and subjects. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 16.7% of 3rd-grade students at Crocker Elementary were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 41.8%. The school's performance is particularly low in mathematics, with only 6.8% of 5th-grade students proficient or better, compared to the state average of 38.2%.

Crocker Elementary has a very high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year. This is significantly higher than the nearby Partridge Elementary (40.91%) and Freedom Elementary (50.05%), which are part of the Waynesville R-VI School District and consistently perform significantly better on MAP tests, often exceeding the state averages. This stark contrast in academic performance suggests a strong correlation between socioeconomic status and educational outcomes, which is a significant challenge for Crocker Elementary.
