Greenville Elementary

Summary:

Greenville Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in Greenville, Missouri, with 302 students. The school is part of the Greenville R-II school district, which is ranked 307 out of 386 districts in Missouri and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Greenville Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Missouri elementary schools, placing it among the lower-performing schools in the state. The school's proficiency rates on the Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) tests are significantly below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, Greenville Elementary's 3rd-grade math proficiency rate was 23.3%, compared to the state average of 40.8%. The school also has consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 20.9% to 26.9% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average. Additionally, Greenville Elementary serves a high percentage of students from low-socioeconomic status backgrounds, with 60-67% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in recent years, a higher rate than the nearby Clearwater Elementary and Williamsville Elementary schools.

While the Greenville R-II school district has increased per-student spending at Greenville Elementary, from $8,277 in 2018-2019 to $11,056 in 2021-2022, the academic performance has not seen a corresponding improvement. This suggests that the school may face systemic challenges that have not been adequately addressed, and a more comprehensive, evidence-based approach to school improvement may be necessary to improve student 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.

Open Quote The student to teacher ratio could be much better at the elementary level. This school suffers from being in a high poverty region. There is a prevalent sense of entitlement in the low income community. Teachers have a tough time with increasing numbers of student behavior issues that are not always appropriately addressed. Classroom materials are minimally adequate. Cronyism and nepotism persist in this small school district. But if a student WANTS to achieve and do well, they can. Close Quote

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.
