Summary

Eastwood Hills Elementary is a public elementary school in Kansas City, Missouri, serving 336 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Raytown C-2 School District, which is ranked 312 out of 367 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Eastwood Hills Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom 20% of Missouri elementary schools, with low academic performance on state assessments. In 2024-2025, only 9.4% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 38.2% statewide and 23.1% in the Raytown C-2 district. The school's performance is particularly low for Hispanic and low-socioeconomic status (SES) student subgroups. Additionally, Eastwood Hills Elementary has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 30.7% to 34.7% in recent years, significantly higher than the state and district averages.

While the nearby Westridge Elementary, Laurel Hills Elementary, and Blue Ridge Elementary schools within the Raytown C-2 district generally perform better on academic measures, they also face high rates of chronic absenteeism and high percentages of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, suggesting that the challenges faced by Eastwood Hills Elementary are not unique to the school but are more systemic within the district. When compared to schools in the neighboring Kansas City 33 School District, Eastwood Hills Elementary generally performs better on academic measures, but the nearby Kansas City 33 schools have even higher rates of chronic absenteeism and higher percentages of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.
