District-Level NCES Analysis
Schuyler Co. R-I operates 2 public schools serving 596 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Missouri. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 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 Schuyler County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $12,853 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the upper half of 549 Missouri districts by per-pupil spending. See how Missouri compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 59.0% local, 23.4% state, and 17.6% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 61/100, ranked #137 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 286.5:1 student-counselor ratio, somewhat above the 250:1 ASCA recommendation, and 12.5% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 95.4% White, 1.4% Hispanic or Latino, 0.5% Asian across the district's schools.
Its largest campus is Schuyler Co. Elem., enrolling 330 students (58% of the district's total enrollment).
Schuyler Co. Elem. accounts for 55.4% of all Schuyler Co. R-I student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Schuyler Co. R-I a distant remainder — means Schuyler Co. R-I-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: combined. 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.
Schuyler Co. R-I student-counselor ratio is 287:1 — near the typical range (US average ~408) — within the typical range for U.S. public districts
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 Variation between sub-units within Schuyler Co. R-I is typically wider than the Schuyler Co. R-I-aggregate figure suggests.
Schuyler Co. R-I chronic absenteeism rate is 12.5% — low (typically associated with lower-than-average attendance disruption; districts in this range often have attendance interventions, robust transportation, or smaller catchments that reduce barriers)
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 Lower values often correlate with smaller scale and population characteristics rather than higher resource budgets per se.
