Triway

Summary:

Triway is an elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Stella, Missouri, with 433 students enrolled. The school is part of the East Newton County R-VI school district, which is ranked 243 out of 386 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Triway consistently ranks in the bottom half of Missouri elementary schools, its low-income students perform significantly better than the state average, ranking in the top 25% of Missouri elementary schools for this subgroup. However, the school's white student subgroup performs poorly, ranking in the bottom 20% of Missouri elementary schools. Triway also has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 18.8% to 24.3% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Triway spends between $8,827 to $9,302 per student, which is slightly higher than the state average, but its performance lags behind. The school also has a relatively high student-teacher ratio, ranging from 15.1 to 17.8 over the past few years, which is higher than the nearby schools like Exeter Elementary, Purdy Elementary, and George Washington Carver Elementary. These factors suggest that Triway may need to re-evaluate how it allocates its resources and address the needs of its white student subgroup to improve overall academic 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.
