Summary:
There is only one elementary school located in the North Side Community School District in Missouri - North Side Community School. This school serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and is situated in a high-poverty, racially segregated area.
North Side Community School is struggling academically, with significantly below-average performance on standardized tests. Only 17.6% of 3rd graders and 21.3% of 4th graders are proficient or better in mathematics, and just 22.4% of 3rd graders are proficient or better in English Language Arts. The school's statewide ranking has consistently placed it in the bottom 20% of Missouri elementary schools over the past three years. Despite the poor academic outcomes, the school spends a relatively high $16,147 per student, raising questions about the effective allocation of resources.
The school's student population is 93.65% African American, and 99% of students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating high levels of poverty and racial segregation. These demographic factors, combined with the school's persistent underperformance, suggest that significant interventions and support are needed to improve educational outcomes for the students at North Side Community School.
