What Retired does

New Franklin R-1 School District is a public K-12 school district operating a single campus in New Franklin, Missouri, serving approximately 424 students across preschool through grade 12. The district encompasses three schools (elementary, middle, and high school) within a 100+ square mile catchment covering southern Howard and northwestern Boone counties, with a teacher-to-pupil ratio of approximately 1:11. It is a government state entity operating under the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, holding full accreditation and A+ Schools Program designation.

The district runs a 1:1 device program with iPads for PreK through first grade and Chromebooks/laptops for grades 2 through 12, backed by a Google Workspace for Education environment, Cisco DUO multi-factor authentication, Meraki wireless infrastructure, AristotleK12 content filtering, and Bark for Schools threat detection. TeacherEase serves as the student information system and parent portal, supplemented by Destiny Quest for library management. Seventy-five percent of teaching staff are eMINTS certified, emphasizing inquiry-based instruction. Technology assets are entirely third-party commercial platforms; the district does not develop proprietary software.

Funding flows from a local tax levy of $5.24 per $100 of assessed valuation, state formula funding through Missouri DESE, and federal programs including Title I, Title IX, and IDEA, with meal services under the National School Lunch Program priced at $1.85 for student breakfast and $2.60 for student lunch for the 2025-2026 school year. The annual operating budget is approximately $5,000,000. Strategic partnerships include Boonslick Technical Education Center for vocational programs, Central Methodist University for dual credit coursework via the MIT-E Interactive Television network, and MOREnet as the internet service provider.
