Summary:
The Pattonville R-III School District in Missouri operates 10 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district serves a diverse student population, with a mix of white, African American, Hispanic, and Asian students. While some schools in the district, such as Rose Acres Elementary and Traditional School, consistently perform at the top of the state, others, like Robert Drummond Elementary, struggle with low proficiency rates, particularly in mathematics.
The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the district, with a clear correlation between socioeconomic status and student achievement. Schools with higher percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch tend to have lower test scores, suggesting that socioeconomic factors play a significant role in student outcomes. However, Rose Acres Elementary and Traditional School stand out as exceptional, consistently ranking among the top elementary schools in Missouri and maintaining high test scores and 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger.
At the middle and high school levels, the district's performance is more mixed. While Pattonville Heights Middle and Holman Middle have shown some improvement in recent years, Pattonville Senior High stands out as a consistent high performer, ranking among the top 44 high schools in Missouri and maintaining a 4-star rating for the past three years.
