Advance R-IV

Summary:

The Advance R-IV school district in Missouri consists of two schools: Advance Elementary (grades KG-6) and Advance High (grades 7-12). While Advance Elementary has consistently performed well, with high rankings and test scores, Advance High has struggled, ranking in the bottom half of Missouri high schools.

Advance Elementary is the standout school in the district, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger in 2020-2021 and a 4-star rating in 2022-2023. Its students consistently outperform the state average on MAP tests, particularly in mathematics and science. In contrast, Advance High received a low 1-star rating from SchoolDigger in 2021-2022, ranking 300 out of 361 Missouri high schools.

Both schools serve a predominantly white student population, with Advance High having an even higher percentage of white students (97.27%) compared to Advance Elementary (95.78%). Additionally, the schools have relatively high free/reduced lunch rates, suggesting they serve a population with lower socioeconomic status. While Advance High spends more per student than Advance Elementary, this higher spending does not seem to translate to better academic performance at the high school level.
