Original Research by School Decision on Northeast Elem.
Northeast Elementary serves students from preschool through fifth grade as a regular public school in the small village of Cairo, Missouri. The school is part of the Northeast Randolph County R-IV district, which operates in a rural part of Randolph County.
The school's enrollment is small, and the student body is predominantly white. A substantial share of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a notable level of economic need. The elementary level serves as the entry point for the district, with no upper grades on this campus.
State assessment results for the most recent school year are limited. In mathematics, only one grade level had a reported proficiency rate; results for other grades and for English language arts and science were suppressed, which is typical when the number of students tested is very small. Looking across the subjects and grades where a result was available, the school's overall proficiency index places it in the top quartile relative to districts in Randolph County. That comparison is based on a single metric, however, and many grade-level results are missing from the data, so a parent may want to ask the school directly for a fuller picture of academic performance. Because this is an elementary school, there is no graduation rate to report.
The community of Cairo is a very small, primarily residential village. Most residents own their homes and commute elsewhere for work. The village has experienced population decline over the past decade, and median property values have edged down in recent years. No major new housing developments are mentioned in publicly available sources. The local economy is modest, with the largest industries being transportation and warehousing, manufacturing, and health care. Civic anchors include a long-operating post office and a nearby archeological site listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
For the district as a whole, no parent-relevant changes such as new programs, boundary shifts, or ballot measures were found in recent records. The district's website and other public sources did not report any major developments.
Northeast Elementary is a small, rural school where the test data is thin due to small class sizes. The available measure of proficiency is strong compared with other districts in the county, but the suppression of many results means a family should follow up directly with the school for more detail on how students are performing in all subjects and grades. The community is stable but shrinking, and the housing market reflects a quiet rural setting. For a family already living in or moving to the Cairo area, this is the local elementary option, and the school's size likely means close relationships among staff, students, and families.
