Summary:
Moniteau County R-I is a small school district in California that is home to a single elementary school, California Elementary. This school serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and has seen fluctuating performance on statewide rankings over the past few years, ranging from 357 out of 908 Missouri elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 488 out of 898 in 2022-2023.
California Elementary's academic performance on state assessments is mixed, with 3rd and 4th-grade students scoring below the state average in both Mathematics and English Language Arts. The school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch (45.36% in 2022-2023), indicating a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students. However, the school's per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio of 12:1 suggest that it may have adequate resources to support student learning.
While California Elementary is the only elementary school in the Moniteau County R-I district, the fluctuations in its statewide ranking and the academic achievement gaps observed in the data indicate a need to closely examine the school's performance and identify potential areas for improvement to ensure all students have the opportunity to succeed.
