Summary

Tracy Elementary is a public elementary school serving 353 students in grades PK-6 in the Tracy Area Public School District in Tracy, Minnesota. The school has consistently outperformed the district and state averages on the MCA-III Math and Reading assessments, with particularly strong performance in 3rd and 4th grade Math.

Tracy Elementary's academic performance is a key strength, with 55.61% of students proficient or better in MCA-III Math and 54.59% proficient or better in MCA-III Reading in 2024-2025, compared to 46.43% and 48.31% for the district, respectively. The school's low student-teacher ratio of 12.1 is also lower than nearby Red Rock Central Elementary (9.2) and Southview Elementary (12.0). Additionally, Tracy Elementary has shown consistent improvement over time, moving from the bottom half of Minnesota elementary schools to the top third in recent years.

While Tracy Elementary outperforms the state and district averages, it is not the top-performing school in the immediate vicinity. For example, West Elementary in Slayton has consistently higher proficiency rates and a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. This suggests that there may be opportunities for Tracy Elementary to learn from the practices and strategies of higher-performing schools in the region to further enhance its already strong academic performance.
