The Morgan County R-11 School District covers 208 square miles on the north side of the Lake of the
Ozarks, and includes the cities of Versailles, Laurie, and Gravois Mills, with a student population of
approximately 1600. The Morgan County R-11 school district is classified as Accredited, under the
Missouri School Improvement Program. Questions about the Morgan County school system can be
answered at 573-378-4231.

The R-11 School District includes a pre-kindergarten through 3rd grade elementary school, a
pre-kindergarten through 5th grade elementary school, a 6th through 8th grade middle-school, and
9th through 12th, (freshman through senior) high-school.

The R-11 District also provides a "Parent-As-Teachers" program, an Early Childhood Special
Education program, a Title-1 Pre-school program, and a Reading Recovery program.

The 6th through 8th grade middle-school includes electives in foreign language, computers, art,
industrial technology, and music.

The 9th through 12th grade high school is designated an A+ school. R-11 students who have met
the A+ criteria 3 years consecutively, are eligible to receive reimbursement of tuition, fees, and
books, while attending a Missouri community college, vocational school, or technical school, as a
full-time student, as long as state funding is continued.

An A+ tutoring program allows high school students to tutor elementary school students who need
individual help. The high school also provides a variety of "dual enrollment" classes, where students
can earn high school and college credits simultaneously. The dual enrollment classes are offered
through State Fair Community College in Sedalia, Missouri Baptist College, and the University of
Central Missouri in Warrensburg.
