Cabool Elementary

Summary:

Cabool Elementary is a public elementary school located in Cabool, Missouri, serving grades PK-4 with a total enrollment of 340 students. The school is part of the Cabool R-IV school district, which is ranked 150 out of 386 districts in Missouri and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Cabool Elementary has shown mixed academic performance compared to the state and nearby schools like Norwood Elementary and Mountain Grove Elementary. While the school's proficiency rates in Mathematics and English Language Arts for 3rd and 4th grades were generally higher than the state averages, they were lower than some of the top-performing nearby schools. Cabool Elementary has also had relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 13.8% to 20.2% over the past few years, significantly higher than the 4.5% rate at Norwood Elementary.

However, Cabool Elementary has performed exceptionally well in serving its high percentage of low-socioeconomic status students, ranking in the top 35 out of 625 Missouri elementary schools in this category for the 2023-2024 school year. The school has also seen an increase in spending per student, from $8,459 in 2018-2019 to $11,519 in 2020-2021, and maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 9.8 to 11.9 over the past few years. These factors suggest the school is investing resources and providing individualized attention to support its student population, despite the challenges it faces in academic performance and chronic absenteeism.

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.
