KIRKSVILLE, MO --  

The Kirksville Public Schools have once again qualified for Missouri's "Distinction in Performance" recognition.

This is Kirksville's 10th year in a row for the accreditation, which is based on academic achievements during the last school year. Kirksville is one of only 23 school districts to earn consecutive distinction for a decade.

Some of the 14 academic standards include ACT scores, attendance, college placement, end-of-course exams, and the MAP test.
