Wing Elementary is a public elementary school located in Sikeston, Missouri, serving grades 1-4 with a total enrollment of 367 students. The school is part of the Sikeston R-6 school district, which is ranked 253 out of 367 districts in Missouri and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Wing Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the Sikeston R-6 district and the state of Missouri in both Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) assessments. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 23.6% of 3rd-grade students and 25.5% of 4th-grade students at Wing Elementary were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 34.6% and 38.3% for the Sikeston R-6 district, and 41.4% and 43.8% for the state of Missouri, respectively. Additionally, Wing Elementary has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 13.5% to 20.8% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.
