Springfield R-XII is a city-based school district in Greene County, Missouri, serving 25,114 students across 53 schools. The district experienced substantial enrollment growth of 10.9% in the prior year, suggesting expanding student populations or significant in-migration. The school configuration includes 39 elementary schools, 9 middle schools, and 5 high schools, with 1,846 teachers providing instruction to students at a ratio of 13.6:1.
Financially, Springfield R-XII operates on a $376.2 million annual budget, with revenue distributed across multiple sources: 68.0% from local property taxes, 20.5% from state funding, and 11.5% from federal sources. This local revenue concentration is typical for Missouri districts but reflects a heavy reliance on local tax bases.
Per-pupil spending of $6,559 falls below Missouri's state average of $7,465, representing approximately 88% of state average spending levels. This funding differential may influence resource availability across curriculum areas, facilities, and support services compared to better-funded districts.
The district's rapid enrollment growth coupled with below-average per-pupil expenditures suggests potential pressures on infrastructure capacity and instructional resources. The significant local revenue dependency creates vulnerability to changes in local economic conditions, while the growing student population may require ongoing expansion of facilities and staffing.
