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.
