Hartville Elementary

Q: Is Hartville Elementary a good school?

Hartville Elementary ranks 627 th of 898 Missouri elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Hartville Elementary is a public elementary school serving 294 students in grades PK-6 in the small town of Hartville, Missouri. While the school has consistently ranked in the middle to lower range of Missouri elementary schools, it faces several challenges that impact student outcomes.

Hartville Elementary has a predominantly white student population, with over 92% of students identifying as white, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school's academic performance, as measured by MAP test scores, is generally below the state and Hartville R-II district averages, particularly in mathematics. For example, in 2022-2023, only 21.2% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to 36.7% for the district and 41.1% statewide. Additionally, Hartville Elementary has a relatively high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds, with nearly 50% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Interestingly, Hartville Elementary's performance is generally lower than the nearby Grovespring Elementary, which is in the same district and has consistently ranked among the top elementary schools in the state. This suggests that there may be significant differences in the educational approaches or resources between the two schools. To improve student outcomes, Hartville Elementary and the Hartville R-II district may need to examine their educational strategies, resource allocation, and targeted support for specific student subgroups.

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.
