Summary:
Creve Coeur School District 76 has one elementary school, LaSalle Elementary School, serving prekindergarten through Grade 4, with 262 students. In 2025–2026, LaSalle’s proficiency was below the Illinois average in both subjects, but the gap was much larger in English language arts (ELA): 38% versus 56% statewide, an 18-point difference. In math, it was 35% versus 40%, a 4-point gap. The clearest finding is that ELA is the more pronounced challenge in the latest results.
LaSalle is the only school in the list, so there is no meaningful local top-or-bottom comparison. Its Grade 4 ELA results show the largest grade-level gap: 38% proficient, compared with 56% statewide, an 18-point difference; in Grade 3, the gap was 10 points (38% versus 48%). Math gaps were closer across grades: 10 points in Grade 3 (39% versus 49%) and 11 points in Grade 4 (31% versus 42%). These figures show that the ELA shortfall is especially pronounced in the Grade 4 state comparison, while math gaps were similar across the two reported grades.
Results moved in opposite directions by subject from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026: LaSalle’s math proficiency rose 8 points, while ELA fell 3 points. State math rose 1 point and state ELA rose 3 points, so LaSalle narrowed its math gap by 7 points but widened its ELA gap by 6 points. SchoolDigger ranked LaSalle at the 21st percentile with 1 star in 2025–2026, down from the 32nd percentile and 2 stars in 2024–2025 and the 37th percentile and 2 stars in 2023–2024. As context, 79% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible in 2024–2025, and the student–teacher ratio was 11.9 that year; chronic absenteeism was 29% in 2025–2026, 5 points above the state and 1 point below the district. With one school listed, the data cannot show differences among local schools.
