Bevier Elementary

Summary:

Bevier Elementary is a public elementary school located in Bevier, Missouri, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 141 students. The school is part of the Bevier C-4 school district, which is ranked 351 out of 386 districts in Missouri and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bevier Elementary has faced significant challenges in recent years, with a declining performance that has seen its statewide ranking drop from a high of 157 out of 1,058 Missouri elementary schools in 2014-2015 to 767 out of 906 in the current 2023-2024 school year. Its academic achievement is also well below the state average, with only 15.5% of 5th-grade students proficient or better in Mathematics and Science, compared to the state averages of 38.4% and 40.8%, respectively. The school's English Language Arts proficiency rates for 3rd, 5th, and 6th grades were all below 25%, compared to the state averages of 41.6%, 43%, and 37.6%, respectively. Additionally, Bevier Elementary has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 12.8% to 23.1% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average.

When compared to nearby schools, such as La Plata Elementary and Atlanta Elementary, Bevier Elementary generally performs worse academically. Despite increased spending per student, from $11,180 in 2018-2019 to $12,733 in 2020-2021, and a relatively low student-teacher ratio, the school's challenges appear to be more complex, likely requiring a comprehensive approach to address both academic and non-academic factors impacting student success.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
