Summary

Senath-Hornersville Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-4 in Senath, Missouri, with 262 students. The school is part of the Senath-Hornersville C-8 school district, which is ranked 187 out of 367 districts in Missouri and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Senath-Hornersville Elementary has shown inconsistent performance on state assessments, with some grades and subjects performing better than others. In 2020-2021, the school had strong performance in 3rd and 4th grade math, with over 50% of students proficient or better, significantly outperforming the state average. However, in more recent years, the school's performance has declined, with 3rd and 4th grade math proficiency rates falling below 30% in 2022-2023. The school's performance on English Language Arts assessments has been more stable, with 3rd and 4th grade proficiency rates generally around 40% in recent years, closer to the state average. The school also faces challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 21.8% to 28.8% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average.

Interestingly, while the nearby schools, such as Central Elementary, Delta C-7 Elementary, and Southland Elementary, generally perform worse than Senath-Hornersville Elementary on state assessments and have lower rankings from SchoolDigger, these schools also serve higher percentages of low-income students. This suggests that Senath-Hornersville Elementary may be doing a relatively better job in supporting its high-needs student population compared to the surrounding schools.
