Summary

Eminence Elementary is a public elementary school in Eminence, Missouri, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 129 students. The school is part of the Eminence R-I school district, which is ranked 166 out of 367 districts in Missouri and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Eminence Elementary has struggled in recent years, ranking in the bottom half of Missouri elementary schools. The school's proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts are significantly lower than the state averages. However, the school's Hispanic students and low socioeconomic status students perform relatively well compared to their peers statewide. Eminence Elementary also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 8.4% to 42.1% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than nearby Summersville Elementary (12.6%) and Birch Tree Elementary (17.7%).

Despite these challenges, Eminence Elementary appears to be relatively successful in serving its Hispanic and low-income student populations, outperforming the state averages for these subgroups. The school also spends more per student ($10,927 in 2021-2022) compared to nearby schools, such as Birch Tree Elementary ($9,019) and Winona Elementary ($9,320). Addressing attendance issues and maintaining consistent academic progress could be crucial for the school's future success.
