District-Level NCES Analysis

ROCKWOOD R-VI operates 30 public schools serving 20,563 students, placing it in the mid-size range in Missouri. The school portfolio breaks down into 19 elementary, 6 middle, 4 high, 1 other schools, giving families a clear picture of grade-band coverage before they move, rent, or enrol. Aggregated across those campuses, enrollment totals 19,597 pupils using the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2022-23 release, and the district is geographically located in St. Louis County County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $13,397 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, which aggregates every revenue and spending line reported under federal accounting standards. The funding mix is 80.2% local, 14.4% state, and 5.4% federal — a breakdown that matters because districts leaning heavily on local revenue are more exposed to property-tax swings, while higher federal shares typically track Title I concentration. Average teacher compensation clocks in at $76,633 per NCES F-33, a signal of the district's ability to recruit and retain staff against neighbouring districts.
