The school earns a composite score of 9.5 out of 10, rated Exceptional, with academic performance scored at 9.6 and growth at 9.7.
Those numbers place North Andrew among the very best public schools in the state — it ranks 9th out of 1,202 elementary schools in Missouri and 10th out of 2,216 public schools statewide across all grade levels.

What Parents Should Know
