Summary:
The 61610 zip code area is home to two schools - LaSalle Elementary School and Parkview Junior High School, both of which serve a high-need student population within the Creve Coeur School District 76. Unfortunately, these schools are performing significantly below state averages on standardized tests, with particularly low proficiency rates in mathematics.
LaSalle Elementary School has a relatively low statewide ranking, with only 40.9% of students proficient or better in ELA and 27.3% in Math, compared to state averages of 53.1% and 38.5% respectively. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 25.4%. In contrast, Parkview Junior High School has an even lower statewide ranking and extremely low performance on standardized tests, with only 14.4% of students proficient or better in ELA and 7.9% in Math, far below state averages.
Both schools serve a high-poverty student population, with over 70% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratios, the schools are still struggling to provide a quality education. Targeted interventions and support from the district and state level may be necessary to help these schools improve and better serve their students.
