Summary

Barrington Elementary is a public elementary school located in Florissant, Missouri, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 513 students. The school is part of the Hazelwood School District, which is ranked 319 out of 367 districts in Missouri and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Barrington Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom half of Missouri elementary schools, with its performance on state assessments (MAP tests) significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 15.1% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in Math, compared to 18.9% in the Hazelwood district and 41.4% statewide. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 22.3% to 42.3% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the state average.

Interestingly, Barrington Elementary's academic performance is consistently lower than the nearby Walker Elementary, Jamestown Elementary, Lusher Elementary, and McCurdy Elementary, which also serve high-poverty populations but generally outperform Barrington on state assessments. The exception is Cold Water Elementary, which is located just 1.71 miles from Barrington and has similar demographics, but outperforms Barrington on most academic measures.
