LaSalle Elementary School

Summary:

LaSalle Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Creve Coeur, Illinois, serving grades PK-4 with a total enrollment of 254 students. The school is part of the Creve Coeur School District 76, which is ranked 757 out of 813 districts in Illinois and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

LaSalle Elementary School faces significant challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, consistently lower academic performance compared to state and district averages, and varying performance across different student subgroups. For example, in 2023-2024, only 26.3% of all grades were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 41.2% statewide, and only 13.8% were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 28.4% statewide. The school's socioeconomic status, with 81.5% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, may contribute to these academic challenges. When compared to nearby schools, such as Glendale Elementary School, LaSalle Elementary School is underperforming academically.

Despite the school's academic challenges, LaSalle Elementary School's per-student spending has increased over the years, from $10,502 in 2019-2020 to $15,169 in 2022-2023. Additionally, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 11.8 to 12.7 students per teacher in recent years. However, these factors have not yet resulted in meaningful improvements in student outcomes, suggesting that addressing the root causes of the school's underperformance, such as attendance issues and the needs of its socioeconomically disadvantaged population, may be crucial for driving academic progress.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
