About this ranking
Schools are ranked by the percentage of students who scored at or above the MO DVT (Growth) Growth Percentile vs Peers threshold on the latest available MO DVT (Growth) English Language Arts test (school year 2024-25). A higher percentage is better.
Only public schools with a reasonable cohort size are included (at least 50 total students enrolled, since the source file does not include per-subject student counts), so very small programs and special-purpose centers are filtered out.
The state average shown above is enrollment-weighted: we multiply each school's score by how many of its students tested, sum those across every public school in Missouri, and divide by the total students tested. This way a big school counts more than a tiny one in the typical-student average.
