Summary

Rountree Elementary is a public elementary school in Springfield, Missouri, serving 205 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Springfield R-XII school district, which is ranked 177 out of 367 districts in the state.

Rountree Elementary faces several challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, lower-than-average test scores across various subjects and grade levels, and a higher proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. When compared to nearby schools in the district, such as Holland Elementary and Pittman Elementary, Rountree generally performs worse on standardized tests, with lower proficiency rates in math, science, and English language arts. Additionally, Rountree's statewide ranking has declined over the years, from a high of 415 out of 865 Missouri elementary schools in 2015-2016 to a low of 782 out of 1,052 schools in 2018-2019.

Despite increased spending per student at Rountree Elementary, from $9,770 in 2018-2019 to $12,012 in 2020-2021, the school's academic performance has not shown significant improvement. This suggests that factors beyond just funding may be contributing to the school's challenges. To address these issues, the school and district may need to implement targeted interventions and strategies to improve student attendance, academic achievement, and support for specific subgroups of students.
