Q: Is Robertsville Elementary a good school?

Summary:

Robertsville Elementary is a public elementary school serving 155 students in grades K-4 in the Meramec Valley R-III school district in Robertsville, Missouri. The school has consistently been ranked among the top elementary schools in the state, currently ranking 95th out of 906 Missouri elementary schools for the 2023-2024 school year.

Robertsville Elementary stands out for its exceptional academic performance, consistently outperforming the state and district averages on standardized tests. In the 2023-2024 school year, 81.8% of 3rd graders and 51.6% of 4th graders were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 40.8% and 44.4% statewide, respectively. Similarly, 77.2% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 41.6% statewide. The school has also seen a decrease in chronic absenteeism, from 27.1% in 2021-2022 to 22.4% in 2023-2024, though this is still higher than the district and state averages. Robertsville Elementary has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 46.46% to 54.11% over the past few years, which is higher than the state average.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Zitzman Elementary, Truman Elementary, and Coleman Elementary, Robertsville Elementary outperforms them in academic achievement, particularly in Mathematics and English Language Arts. However, these nearby schools have lower chronic absenteeism rates and lower percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Robertsville Elementary's higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio may contribute to its strong academic performance, but the school still faces challenges in addressing its higher chronic absenteeism rates and supporting its diverse student population.

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.
