District-Level NCES Analysis
Allen Village operates 5 public schools serving 422 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Missouri. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 elementary, 1 high, 1 middle, 1 combined schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Jackson County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $17,178 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the top 55 of 549 Missouri districts by per-pupil spending. See how Missouri compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 17.5% local, 68.1% state, and 14.4% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 90/100, ranked #11 of 432 in Missouri against a state average of 50, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 151.8:1 student-counselor ratio, that meets the ASCA-recommended benchmark, and 22.9% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 64.9% Hispanic or Latino, 27.6% African American, 4.3% White across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Allen Village Primary Academy, with a diversity index of 56.9/100.
Its largest campus is Allen Village High School, enrolling 130 students (34% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Allen Village Preschool, at 9 students, a 14x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Allen Village High School accounts for 30.8% of all Allen Village student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Allen Village-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Allen Village school enrollment varies 14× across entities
Allen Village school enrollment ranges from 9 students (lowest) to 130 students (highest), a spread of 121 students. That spread reflects typical mixed-portfolio variation between specialty programs and large neighbourhood schools. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Allen Village has higher-than-average Title I eligibility — 75.5% of the population qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch
free or reduced-price lunch eligibility is the federal threshold for Title I funding allocations, established under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015). Areas above 75% eligibility — including this one — receive concentration grants on top of the basic Title I formula. Regions with eligibility this high typically draw a substantially larger federal funding share relative to their local tax base, which can either offset or reinforce existing gaps depending on allocation policy.
Allen Village student-counselor ratio is 152:1 — well below typical (typically associated with unusually small scale or exceptionally high per-unit investment)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Values this far below typical often correlate with unusually small scale or population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se — worth checking whether the underlying denominator is itself an outlier.
Allen Village chronic absenteeism rate is 22.9% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Variation between sub-units within Allen Village is typically wider than the Allen Village-aggregate figure suggests.
Allen Village has 5 schools, including 1 high, 1 middle, 2 elementary, 1 combined. Total enrollment is 422 students.
