Sikeston R-6

Summary:

The Sikeston R-6 School District in Missouri consists of 7 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. The district serves a diverse student population with a significant percentage of African American and white students. While the schools face challenges related to economic disadvantage, one elementary school, Lee Hunter Elementary, stands out with higher academic performance compared to the district and state averages.

Lee Hunter Elementary is the highest-performing school in the district, ranking 451 out of 898 Missouri elementary schools. It has the highest percentage of proficient or better students in Mathematics and English Language Arts among the elementary schools. However, the school also has the highest student-teacher ratio, which could be an area for improvement. In contrast, Southeast Elementary has the lowest student-teacher ratio but lower academic performance, suggesting that factors beyond just class size may be influencing student outcomes.

The Sikeston R-6 School District faces significant economic challenges, with all schools having very high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 98.87% to 99.7%. This high level of economic disadvantage may be a contributing factor to the lower academic performance observed across the district, with the exception of Lee Hunter Elementary. Addressing these economic and academic disparities will be crucial for the district to improve educational outcomes for all students.
