Summary

Conn-West Elementary is a public elementary school in Grandview, Missouri, serving 335 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Grandview C-4 School District, which is ranked 279 out of 367 school districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Conn-West Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom 20% of Missouri elementary schools, with significantly below-average performance on state assessments across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 12.2% of 3rd-grade students at Conn-West were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 29.7% in the Grandview C-4 district and 41.4% statewide. The school also has very high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 32.5% to 42.0% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state and district averages. Additionally, around 77% of Conn-West's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

While the nearby Belvidere Elementary, Meadowmere Elementary, and Butcher-Greene Elementary schools within the Grandview C-4 district generally perform better than Conn-West on academic measures, they also face similar challenges with high rates of chronic absenteeism and economic disadvantage. These systemic issues within the district suggest that addressing the needs of Conn-West and other similar schools will require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach to support student achievement and well-being.
