Summary

Meadowmere Elementary is a public elementary school in Grandview, Missouri, serving 329 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Grandview C-4 School District, which is ranked 279 out of 367 districts in the state.

Meadowmere Elementary consistently outperforms the Grandview C-4 district and the state of Missouri in standardized test scores, particularly in mathematics and English language arts. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Meadowmere's 3rd-grade math proficiency rate was 47.2%, compared to 29.7% for the district and 41.4% for the state. The school also ranks among the top 5-20 Missouri elementary schools for African American and Hispanic students in recent years, indicating excellent academic outcomes for these populations. However, Meadowmere has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 23.1% to 42.0% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Meadowmere Elementary serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, with 66.19% to 69% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years. Despite these challenges, the school has seen a steady increase in per-student spending, from $11,802 in 2018-2019 to $14,467 in 2021-2022, and maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 12.9 to 13.7 in recent years. These factors may contribute to the school's academic success, as it continues to outperform the district and state in key areas.

This school is amazing! The new principal is awesome, he really seems to be there for the staff and the kids. The PTA and parent involvement is unbelievable. They work hard to make Meadowmere the best it can be! My kids teachers have been awesome! I'm proud to be a Meadowmere Meadowlark! Close Quote

Don't bring your kids to Grandview! The schools only teach the MAP test.. which the kids continue to fail! We asked our son's 2nd grade teacher for a list of the objectives that he would be learning and she said, "What is that?" Needless to say.. he learns nothing. I have to supplement all the teaching at home, but he sure has watched a lot of movies at school. The teachers can't control the classrooms. The administration does not remove violent foul mouthed kids from the classrooms. Instead the teachers have to walk those kids around the school, holding their hands because those kids can't be trusted. The community is violent and many parents and kids don't care about education at all. The only store is a price chopper with an armed guard. If you want to go to the new playground, take your kids early in the day before the older kids close in on it and you have to listen to them talking about having sex in the woods and gunning down their classmates. Run don't walk from this town! Close Quote
