Excelsior Springs 40

Summary:

The Excelsior Springs 40 School District in Missouri consists of 7 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. The district serves a predominantly white student population, with some notable exceptions in terms of student demographics and school performance.

Among the standout schools in the district, Elkhorn Elementary emerges as the highest-performing, ranking 359 out of 898 Missouri elementary schools and achieving the best proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts compared to the district and state averages. Elkhorn Elementary also boasts the lowest student-teacher ratio of 11.1 among the elementary schools. In contrast, Excelsior Springs Technical High stands out for its unique student demographics, with a significant African American population and an extremely high free/reduced lunch rate of 95.08%, the highest in the district. Despite its low overall ranking, the school's low student-teacher ratio of 3.5 suggests a focus on individualized attention.

The district as a whole appears to be struggling, with most schools performing below the state averages in academic proficiency. This could be an area of concern and potential focus for improvement. Additionally, the high free/reduced lunch rates, especially at Excelsior Springs Technical High and Lewis Elementary, indicate a need for additional support and resources to address socioeconomic challenges that may be impacting student performance.
