Summary

Manor Hill Elementary is a public elementary school in Liberty, Missouri, serving 293 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Liberty 53 school district, which is ranked 70 out of 367 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Manor Hill Elementary is part of a generally well-performing district, the school itself has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Missouri elementary schools in recent years, with academic performance below the district and state averages across grade levels and subject areas. The school's proficiency rates in math and English language arts are 10-20 percentage points lower than the Liberty 53 district averages, and its performance is particularly weak in mathematics, with proficiency rates ranging from 26% to 40% compared to the district's 47-55% range. Manor Hill also has a high chronic absenteeism rate, ranging from 15.6% to 22.5% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Interestingly, the nearby Liberty Oaks Elementary, Shoal Creek Elementary, and Warren Hills Elementary schools significantly outperform Manor Hill Elementary on state assessments, with proficiency rates that are 20-40 percentage points higher in many cases. These higher-performing schools also have lower rates of chronic absenteeism. The factors contributing to Manor Hill's relatively low academic performance, such as the high rates of chronic absenteeism and the large percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, suggest that targeted interventions and support may be necessary to improve student outcomes at the school.

by a student
Friday, October 22, 2021

Maybe years ago I had attended this school. I was extremely upset at my 5th grade graduation. Every student's name was said however mine was not. I believe every student should be recognized for this special moment. Even though it has been many years, still to this day. Still upset about it. I am hoping no other child or children in this school, having to go through the same pain that I had to deal with. Close Quote
