Summary

Ste. Genevieve Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Ste. Genevieve, Missouri, part of the Ste. Genevieve County R-II school district. With 573 students and a student-teacher ratio of 11.4, the school has consistently performed well on state assessments, ranking in the top 30% of Missouri elementary schools in recent years.

Ste. Genevieve Elementary's proficiency rates in Math and ELA are generally higher than the state averages but lower than the Ste. Genevieve County R-II district averages. For example, in 4th grade Math, the school had 58.6% proficiency, compared to 55.4% for the district and 43.8% for the state. The school's performance on Science assessments for 5th grade was also strong, with 55.1% proficiency compared to 58.6% for the district and 42.2% for the state. However, the school's performance for its White and Special Education student subgroups has been more mixed, with rankings in the middle to lower half of Missouri elementary schools.

While Ste. Genevieve Elementary has seen a decrease in chronic absenteeism rates over the past few years, from 14.6% in 2021-2022 to 11.8% in 2023-2024, this is still slightly higher than the 11.2% at the nearby Bloomsdale Elementary school. The school's higher spending per student and lower student-teacher ratio suggest it is allocating resources effectively to support smaller class sizes and potentially more individualized instruction, which may be contributing to its strong academic results.
