Summary:
The city of Cadet, Missouri is home to 4 schools serving grades K-12, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the schools in this district face significant economic challenges, with over 98% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, Kingston Elementary stands out as a high-performing school, consistently earning top ratings from SchoolDigger and outperforming state and district averages on standardized tests.
In contrast, the other schools in the Kingston K-14 district struggle academically, with Kingston Middle School in particular performing below state averages, especially in 8th-grade Mathematics and Science. The racial makeup of the schools is also quite homogeneous, with the student population being predominantly white, ranging from 95.26% to 97.81% across the district.
Funding disparities may also be a concern, as the spending per student varies significantly, from $12,309 at Kingston Primary to $9,872 at Kingston High. These challenges highlight the need for further investigation and potential interventions to address the educational and resource inequities within the Cadet school district.
