Maysville Elementary

Q: Is Maysville Elementary a good school?

Maysville Elementary ranks 486 th of 906 Missouri elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 2 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Maysville Elementary is a public elementary school serving 279 students in grades PK-6 in Maysville, Missouri, which is part of the Maysville R-I school district. While the school has shown strong performance in 6th grade math, with 56.2% of students proficient or better compared to the state average of 44.4%, it faces challenges in 3rd grade math and ELA, where proficiency rates are significantly below state averages.

Maysville Elementary's performance has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 135th in 2020-2021 to 486th in 2023-2024 among Missouri elementary schools. The school also has achievement gaps, with white students and low-socioeconomic status students performing lower than the overall school. Additionally, Maysville Elementary has seen a steady increase in chronic absenteeism, from 9.2% in 2022-2023 to 16.6% in 2023-2024. Compared to nearby schools, Ellison Elementary in St. Joseph outperforms Maysville Elementary, while Pattonsburg Elementary has lower test scores, particularly in math.

Despite these challenges, Maysville Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 10.8 to 11.8, and its per-student spending is comparable to nearby schools. However, the school's declining statewide ranking and the need to address performance gaps and chronic absenteeism suggest areas for potential improvement. Comparing Maysville Elementary to high-performing schools like Helena Elementary can provide valuable insights and inspiration for the school's future development.

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.
