Summary:
The Grandview C-4 School District in Missouri operates 8 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving a diverse student population. While the district faces challenges, with several schools underperforming state averages, Meadowmere Elementary stands out as the highest-ranked school in the district, outperforming peers in math and English Language Arts proficiency.
The district's schools serve a predominantly African American and Hispanic student population, with free and reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 61.68% to 77.74%. Schools with the highest poverty rates, such as Conn-West Elementary and Butcher-Greene Elementary, also have the lowest test scores, suggesting a correlation between socioeconomic factors and academic performance. In contrast, Belvidere Elementary has the highest percentage of white students and also outperforms the district and state averages in several grade levels.
The district's focus on early childhood education is evident with the presence of HIGH GROVE Early Childhood, which serves only pre-kindergarten students and has the lowest student-teacher ratio in the district. This emphasis on the early years may contribute to better outcomes for these young learners and highlights the district's commitment to supporting students from the start of their educational journey.
