Hartville Elementary

Public Grades PK, KG-5

Summary

Hartville Elementary is a public elementary school serving 294 students in grades PK-6 in the small town of Hartville, Missouri. While the school has consistently ranked in the middle to lower range of Missouri elementary schools, it faces several challenges that impact student outcomes.

Hartville Elementary has a predominantly white student population, with over 92% of students identifying as white, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school's academic performance, as measured by MAP test scores, is generally below the state and Hartville R-II district averages, particularly in mathematics. For example, in 2022-2023, only 21.2% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to 36.7% for the district and 41.1% statewide. Additionally, Hartville Elementary has a relatively high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with nearly 50% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Interestingly, Hartville Elementary's performance is generally lower than the nearby Grovespring Elementary, which is in the same district and has consistently ranked among the top elementary schools in the state. This suggests that there may be significant differences in the educational approaches or resources between the two schools. To improve student outcomes, Hartville Elementary and the Hartville R-II district may need to examine their educational strategies, resource allocation, and targeted support for specific student subgroups.
