Best Public Schools in Bloomfield, MO

Summary:

The city of Bloomfield, Missouri is home to three public schools: Bloomfield Elementary, Bloomfield High, and Bloomfield Middle, all part of the Bloomfield R-XIV school district. While Bloomfield High has maintained a consistent statewide ranking, the elementary and middle schools have seen significant declines in their performance compared to their peers across Missouri.

Bloomfield Elementary has experienced a substantial drop in its statewide ranking, falling from 152nd out of 1,045 Missouri elementary schools in 2017-2018 to 471st out of 898 in 2022-2023. Similarly, Bloomfield Middle School's ranking has declined from 59th out of 587 Missouri middle schools in 2018-2019 to 257th out of 459 in 2022-2023. This trend is concerning, as both schools were previously performing well above average. Additionally, all three Bloomfield schools have proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts that are below the state averages.

The Bloomfield school district serves a population with significant economic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentage of students eligible for free and reduced lunch (over 50% at both Bloomfield Elementary and Bloomfield Middle). Despite the relatively low student-teacher ratios at Bloomfield Elementary and Bloomfield High, these schools have not been able to translate this into higher test scores. Further analysis would be needed to understand how resources are being allocated and whether they are being used effectively to support student learning and improve academic outcomes across the district.
