Summary:

The 64024 zip code area of Excelsior Springs, Missouri is home to 7 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. This district serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged population, with high rates of free and reduced-price lunch eligibility across the schools.

Among the standout schools in the area is Elkhorn Elementary, which has the highest performance on state assessments, with over 40% of students proficient or better in both math and English Language Arts. In contrast, Excelsior Springs Technical High serves a unique population, with 96.15% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, and consequently lower test scores and a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Across the district, there are significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 21.7% to 21.7%, and overall academic performance that lags behind state averages. Addressing these issues, such as improving instructional practices and targeting resources to support the district's most vulnerable students, should be key priorities for the Excelsior Springs 40 school district.
