KC Schools get low grades in new MSIP 6 report

The numbers came out on our Missouri's schools, and long story short: it's a sh*tshow. And I haven't seen really any coverage of this release, which happened yesterday, but local news media was given this stuff by the state over a week ago...

I took the liberty of pulling the percentage of points earned (based on the MSIP 6 rubric) for each school. This takes into account test scores/improvement, but also a few items like attendance and school improvement plans.

Taking a look at these numbers, the worst performing districts in Jackson County are all in KC - DeLaSalle, Hogan (charter school commission working to shut them down), Gordon Parks, Genesis School (also will be shut down), and Hickman Mills.

Somewhat shockingly, Independence had a slightly lower score than KCPS, and Fort Osage also had a very disappointing score.
