View in Map RoomThis layer displays the service areas for the various community colleges in the state of Missouri. Unlike in some states, Missouri’s community colleges are not a “system” with a centralized administration under one governing body. Instead, they are 12 separate and independent local colleges, with a history of working together to meet both state and local needs. As local entities, each college’s academic and workforce training programs mirror the local economy by design. Their service regions cover the entire state, allowing them to serve every Missourian and every Missouri business.

View in Map RoomThis layer presents data on chronic absenteeism from the U.S. Department of Education’s CRDC. A chronically absent student is one who misses 15 or more school days in a school year. A student is considered absent if they are not physically present on school grounds or participating in approved off-site instruction or related activities for at least half the school day.
School district data are compiled from school-level records. Calculated percentages represent chronic absenteeism only for schools within the district that have valid, unsuppressed data. For more details, refer to the CRDC’s definition of Chronic Student Absenteeism.
