Best Public Schools in Osceola, MO

Summary:

The city of Osceola, Missouri is home to three schools: two elementary schools (Osceola Elementary and Roscoe Elementary) and one junior-senior high school (Osceola Junior-Senior High). The data reveals a stark contrast in academic performance between the elementary and high school levels, with Osceola Elementary consistently outperforming the state average in various subject areas, while Osceola Junior-Senior High struggles to meet state benchmarks.

Among the standout schools, Osceola Elementary ranks in the top half of Missouri elementary schools and has strong performance in mathematics, with 5th and 6th-grade students scoring significantly above the state average. In contrast, Roscoe Elementary, despite its small student population of just 52 students and a remarkably low student-teacher ratio of 7.3, faces challenges with a high percentage of students (76.92%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-need student population.

Across the district, chronic absenteeism rates are a concern, with both Osceola Elementary and Osceola Junior-Senior High reporting rates significantly above the state average.
