Summary:
The city of Stella, Missouri has only one school in the data set - Triway Elementary, which serves grades PK-8 and has a total enrollment of 433 students. Triway is part of the East Newton County R-VI school district, which is ranked 252 out of 376 districts in Missouri and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Triway Elementary has a predominantly white student population (79.21%), with smaller percentages of Asian (9.01%), two or more races (6.93%), Hispanic (2.54%), Native American (1.39%), African American (0.69%), and Pacific Islander (0.23%) students. Academically, Triway's performance on the Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) tests is generally below the state averages across grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 3rd grade math, Triway's proficiency rate is 40.5% compared to the state average of 41.1%. Additionally, Triway has a high percentage of students (73.67%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
Triway's per-student spending for the 2021-2022 school year was $9,302, which is lower than the state average, and the school has a student-teacher ratio of 17.8, slightly higher than the state average. These factors, combined with the school's academic underperformance and high poverty rates, suggest that Triway Elementary is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its diverse student population. Further analysis and targeted interventions may be necessary to help the school improve student outcomes and better serve the needs of its community.
