Schools

Schools are places or systems for learning or education and may be physical locations composed of a building or a campus that includes multiple buildings. Schools may also be virtual or online institutions that offer educational experiences and degrees. Schools are usually physical locations for children in grades 1-12, as well as kindergarten and pre-kindergarten (pre-K) classes.

In Missouri, schools are recognized as institutions for education, serving various grade levels from pre-kindergarten (pre-K) through 12th grade. These schools can be physical buildings or campuses where in-person instruction takes place. Missouri also acknowledges the existence of virtual or online schools that provide educational experiences and degrees. The state has specific regulations and statutes that govern the operation of these educational institutions, including accreditation standards, curriculum requirements, and teacher qualifications. Public schools in the state are overseen by the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE), which ensures that they meet the educational standards set forth by the state. Additionally, Missouri has provisions for charter schools, private schools, and homeschooling, each with its own set of regulations that must be followed.
