Summary:
The city of Marthasville, Missouri is home to a single elementary school, Marthasville Elementary, which serves grades K-6 and has a total enrollment of 181 students. The school is part of the Washington School District, which ranks 58th out of 376 districts in the state.
While Marthasville Elementary has shown some improvement in its statewide ranking over the past few years, moving from 540th out of 1,052 schools in 2018-2019 to 297th out of 898 schools in 2022-2023, it does not appear to be a standout school in the state. The school's test scores are mixed, with stronger performance in 3rd-grade English Language Arts but lower performance in 4th-grade math and 5th-grade English Language Arts compared to the district and state averages. Additionally, the school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 37.02%, which may indicate a higher level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
Despite the higher spending per student at $12,917, which is above the state average, the school's performance is not significantly better than the state or district averages, suggesting that factors beyond just funding may be influencing student outcomes. However, the school's student-teacher ratio of 12.5 is better than 5 other elementary schools in the Washington School District, which could be a positive factor in student learning and engagement.
