Summary:
The Crossroads Charter Schools district in Missouri operates two elementary schools, Crossroads - Central Street and Crossroads - Quality Hill, serving students from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds. While both schools have relatively low test scores compared to state averages, Crossroads - Quality Hill performs slightly worse overall.
The schools face significant challenges, with consistently low performance across key metrics. Both schools have significantly lower proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts compared to the state averages, with Crossroads - Quality Hill underperforming the Crossroads Charter Schools district average in most subject areas. Additionally, the schools serve a high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating socioeconomic challenges that may contribute to the lower academic outcomes.
Equity concerns also arise, as the schools have a majority of African American and Hispanic students, raising questions about access to quality education for these student populations. To improve student success, the district may need to implement more targeted interventions and strategies to address the specific needs of their diverse student population and overcome the persistent academic challenges faced by these elementary schools.
