The Laclede County C-5 school district in Missouri has only one elementary school, Joel E. Barber Elementary, which serves grades PK-8 with an enrollment of 500 students.
Joel E. Barber Elementary has a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 11.5%, which is higher than the state average.

However, the school's free/reduced lunch rate is lower than the state average, indicating a relatively more affluent student population. The school district's spending per student is also lower than the state average, which may contribute to the lower academic performance, and the student-teacher ratio is slightly higher than the state average.

The school's lower spending per student and slightly higher student-teacher ratio may be contributing factors to its academic performance.
