Mathis Elementary

Summary:

Mathis Elementary is a public elementary school located in Hayti, Missouri, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 375 students. The school is part of the Hayti R-II school district, which is ranked 356 out of 376 districts in Missouri and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mathis Elementary faces significant challenges, with a student population that is 75.2% African American, significantly higher than nearby schools. The school consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of Missouri elementary schools, with only 7.2% to 47.7% of students scoring proficient or better on state assessments. Despite relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $8,218 to $10,029, the school's academic performance remains poor, suggesting that additional funding alone may not be sufficient to address the underlying issues. In contrast, nearby schools like Portageville Elementary and Central Elementary have significantly higher academic performance, with proficiency rates often exceeding the state averages.

The high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch at Mathis Elementary, over 99%, indicates a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. This suggests that poverty and socioeconomic factors may be significant contributors to the school's academic struggles. Addressing these underlying challenges, in addition to racial inequities, will be crucial for improving student outcomes at Mathis Elementary. Collaboration with nearby high-performing schools and a deeper understanding of the unique needs of the Mathis Elementary community could be valuable in developing effective strategies for improvement.

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.
