How to Apply
Among its many ministries, Visitation Parish provides a Catholic education to the children of established parishioners who are registered members of Visitation Parish, active in the practice of their faith, and who have maintained a tithe commitment to the parish for a period of at least 12 months. For those parishioners who have been registered and active for a period of less than 12 months, tuition will be required for the first school year. Admission of these families to the school will depend on availability of space. When all else is equal, priority will be given to the established parishioner who resides within the parish boundaries.

Why It Matters
Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) tests are scored (or graded) according to four achievement levels: Below Basic, Basic, Proficient, and Advanced. The number shown here is the percentage of students who scored Proficient or Advanced. When comparing scores between years, please remember that the test Missouri gives has changed several times.
Please note that private schools are not required to participate in these exams.
In 2019, the average English score in Missouri was 48.7%; the average Math score was 41.9%, source
Attendance Rate 90/90
Why It Matters
Schools strive to have at least 90% of their students achieve a 90% attendance rate because kids learn best when they’re in school.
In 2019, 87.3% of Missouri students were in attendance at least 90% of the time, source.
