Summary

Granby is an elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the East Newton County R-VI school district, with 594 students, making it the largest school in the analysis. Unfortunately, Granby has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Missouri elementary schools, with a 1-2 star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, and its performance has been below the state and district averages across various academic metrics.

Granby stands out for its high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 18.2% to 24.3% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and the other nearby schools in the analysis. Additionally, Granby's proficiency rates on the MAP assessments are consistently lower than the state and district averages, especially in mathematics, with its 3rd grade math proficiency at 28.9% compared to the state average of 41.4% in 2024-2025. The school also has a high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 62.56% to 69.7%, and a relatively high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13.9 to 14.1.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the analysis, such as Goodman Elementary and Central Elementary, generally perform better than Granby on academic metrics like test scores and chronic absenteeism, and have lower percentages of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch. Granby's performance for specific student subgroups, such as low socioeconomic status students and disabled students, is particularly concerning, and the school's spending per student, ranging from $8,367 to $8,538, is lower than the nearby schools. Overall, Granby's declining performance over the years suggests the need for significant improvements to better serve its students.
