Summary

Coverdell Elementary is a public elementary school serving 299 students in grades K-4 in Saint Charles, Missouri, which is part of the St. Charles R-VI school district. The school has consistently maintained a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, outperforming the state average in both Math and English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates for 3rd and 4th grade students.

While Coverdell Elementary's academic performance is strong, the school faces some challenges, including relatively high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 17.4% to 22.3% over the past few years. Additionally, the school has seen significant fluctuations in its free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 1.67% to 48.95%, indicating a diverse student population in terms of socioeconomic status. Compared to nearby schools, Coverdell's performance is mixed, as it outperforms the district and state averages in test scores but lags behind the top-performing Lincoln Elementary.

Coverdell Elementary's relatively high spending per student, ranging from $16,303 to $18,327 over the past few years, and low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 8.6 to 9.3, suggest a focus on providing a quality educational experience for its students. To further improve, the school could consider strategies to address chronic absenteeism and explore ways to share best practices with top-performing schools in the district.
