Covel D. Searcy Elementary stands out with a 4-star rating and strong performance, ranking 170 out of 901 Missouri elementary schools. However, the district-wide chronic absenteeism rate of 16.8% is a concern that needs to be addressed.

On a positive note, Gallatin High maintains an impressive 100% four-year graduation rate, a remarkable achievement.

The district also exhibits potential equity concerns, with significant differences in free and reduced lunch rates across the schools.
