Summary:
The Tracy Area Public School District contains one elementary school, Tracy Elementary, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 6th grade. Located in the Tracy area, the school consistently ranks in the top half of Minnesota elementary schools and outperforms the district and state averages on standardized math and reading assessments, particularly in the 3rd and 4th grade levels.
Tracy Elementary boasts a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.1, which likely contributes to the school's academic success. In the 2024-2025 school year, 55.61% of students were proficient or better in MCA-III Math, compared to 46.43% for the district and 45.21% statewide. Similarly, 54.59% of students were proficient or better in MCA-III Reading, compared to 48.31% for the district and 49.59% statewide. While the school serves a high proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with 57.79% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, it continues to provide a quality education and support student learning.
Despite the school's overall strong performance, there are areas for potential improvement, such as the lower proficiency rates in 5th and 6th grade math and reading. Analyzing the factors contributing to these lower performance levels could help the school identify strategies to further enhance student outcomes and ensure all students have access to a quality education.
