Summary:
The Confluence Academies school district in Missouri operates 6 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools, serving a predominantly minority student population. While the district faces significant challenges in providing quality education, with an overall 1-star rating, a few standout schools emerge from the data.
Grand Center Arts Academy Middle stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, outperforming the district and state averages in both math and English language arts proficiency. In contrast, the elementary schools, such as South City and Old North Academy, struggle with very low proficiency rates, with some grades seeing less than 10% of students proficient in core subjects.
The data also reveals stark disparities in funding and academic outcomes within the district. Aspire Academy, the school with the highest spending per student at $26,945, is among the lowest-performing schools in the state, suggesting that higher funding does not necessarily translate to better academic performance. Overall, the Confluence Academies district faces significant challenges in providing quality education to its students, with the majority of its schools performing well below state averages.
