The Shelby County R-IV school district in Missouri consists of three schools: South Shelby Elementary, South Shelby High, and South Shelby Middle School. The district serves a predominantly white, low-income student population, with high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients across all three schools.
Among the standout schools, South Shelby Elementary has the highest percentage of white students at 92.86%, while South Shelby High earned a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger in the 2017-2018 school year, ranking 119th out of 468 Missouri high schools.

However, the Shelby County R-IV district as a whole is ranked 256th out of 376 districts in Missouri and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance compared to other districts in the state. The schools have also seen fluctuations in their statewide rankings, with the high school dropping from a 4-star rating to a 1-star rating in recent years. Additionally, the district's test scores are generally lower than the state averages, particularly in mathematics and English language arts, suggesting a need for targeted interventions and support to improve student outcomes.
