Best Public Schools in Owensville, MO

Summary:

The city of Owensville, Missouri is home to three schools serving students from elementary through high school: Owensville High, Owensville Elementary, and Owensville Middle. These schools are part of the Gasconade County R-II district and serve a predominantly white student population.

Owensville Elementary stands out as a strong performer, ranking 472 out of 898 Missouri elementary schools and outperforming the district and state in 3rd and 4th-grade math proficiency. However, it has a relatively high percentage of free and reduced lunch recipients at 55.7%. Owensville Middle also performs well, ranking 217 out of 459 Missouri middle schools and outperforming the district and state in 6th-grade English Language Arts proficiency. The school has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past two years.

While the schools in Owensville demonstrate some areas of strength, there are also opportunities for improvement. The district's racial homogeneity, with the lowest percentage of white students being 90.94% at Owensville High, suggests a lack of diversity that may be worth addressing. Additionally, the significant differences in free and reduced lunch rates between the schools indicate potential socioeconomic disparities within the district that could be further investigated.
