Maysville R-I School District
Maysville’s K–12 school district, shared with Amity, Camden Township, Clarksdale, Weatherby, Dallas Township and more. It’s its own government, with a budget separate from the town’s.
Of the $12,170 per pupil, $6,758 goes to the classroom (teachers, aides, supplies); the rest to buses, buildings, counselors and administration. Building projects and debt payments aren’t in the per-pupil figure.
Missouri districts overall: 54% local, 35% state, 11% federal.

Can I afford it? →The median bill homeowners report to the Census survey (bills of $10,000+ are reported as “$10,000+”). The effective rate is that bill ÷ the median home value: a rough guide, not the official tax rate. In a town this small the estimate has a wide margin.
