District-Level NCES Analysis
Warrensburg R-Vi operates 6 public schools serving 3,385 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Missouri. The school portfolio breaks down into 2 combined, 2 elementary, 1 high, 1 middle 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 Johnson County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $12,179 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 552 Missouri districts by per-pupil spending. See how Missouri compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 55.6% local, 32.8% state, and 11.6% 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 31/100, ranked #355 of 433 in Missouri against a state average of 50, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 6 schools offering Advanced Placement (5 AP courses district-wide), a 414:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 13.9% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 73.3% White, 6.8% Hispanic or Latino, 5.2% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Maple Grove Elementary, with a diversity index of 48.3/100.
Its largest campus is Warrensburg High, enrolling 1,027 students (29% of the district's total enrollment).
Warrensburg High accounts for 28.9% of all Warrensburg R-Vi student enrollment
That dominant concentration means Warrensburg R-Vi-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: high. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Enrollment-weighted aggregates give this entity more weight than any smaller peer, while an unweighted entity average treats every record equally.
Warrensburg R-Vi school enrollment varies 2.6× across entities
Warrensburg R-Vi school enrollment ranges from 399 students (lowest) to 1,027 students (highest), a spread of 628 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio, most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Warrensburg R-Vi student-counselor ratio is 414:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)
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 Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.
Warrensburg R-Vi chronic absenteeism rate is 13.9% — 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.
