Summary:
The Jefferson County R-Vii school district in Missouri comprises 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district serves a predominantly white student population, with varying levels of economic need among the schools.
Among the standout schools in the district, Danby-Rush Tower Middle consistently ranks in the top 25% of Missouri middle schools and exceeds the district and state averages in several academic subjects. In contrast, the elementary schools in the district, such as Plattin Primary, have lower test scores and rankings, suggesting opportunities for improvement in curriculum and instruction at the elementary level. Plattin Primary, however, stands out with the lowest student-teacher ratio in the district, indicating a focus on individualized attention for students.
The data also reveals potential equity concerns, as the schools in the district have a significant racial homogeneity and varying free/reduced lunch rates, suggesting unequal access to resources and opportunities for students. Addressing these disparities and ensuring a high-quality education for all students should be a priority for the Jefferson County R-Vii school district.
