House Springs Elementary

Q: Is House Springs Elementary a good school?

House Springs Elementary ranks 333 rd of 906 Missouri elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 3 stars out of 5.

Summary:

House Springs Elementary is a public elementary school serving 481 students in grades K-5 in the Northwest R-I school district in House Springs, Missouri. The school has been consistently ranked in the middle range of Missouri elementary schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger for most years.

One of House Springs Elementary's key strengths is its performance with low socioeconomic status (SES) students, ranking in the top 20% of Missouri elementary schools in this category with a 4-star rating. The school also excels in mathematics, with 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade math proficiency rates generally higher than the district and state averages. Additionally, the school's 5th grade science proficiency rates have been consistently higher than the district and state. However, the school faces challenges with increasing chronic absenteeism rates and relatively weaker performance for its white student population compared to other subgroups.

Compared to nearby schools, House Springs Elementary generally performs on par or slightly better than other schools in the Northwest R-I district. But some higher-performing schools in the Rockwood R-VI district, such as Geggie Elementary and Blevins Elementary, significantly outperform House Springs Elementary across multiple measures, suggesting the school could potentially learn from their practices and strategies to improve its own outcomes.

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.
